Comprehensive data sets providing insight to market trends and clinical metrics

Acentrus Specialty creates a more direct relationship between specialty drug manufacturers and select health systems that are trusted by prescribers and patients to deliver complex treatments locally, conduct clinical trials and report results.

Acentrus participants include many of the nation’s most sophisticated academic medical centers and integrated delivery systems where key opinion leaders practice. Acentrus gives these institutions—and other leading hospitals and systems—access to services and support that help them partner with pharmaceutical companies more effectively. Acentrus qualifies and presents eligible health systems who can meet clinical, operational, and data eligibility requirements set by the manufacturer to the manufacturer for the opportunity of product access; the manufacturer remains the ultimate gatekeeper.
