Patient-Centered Needs Research

Mindspot Research has tried and true methodologies to provide patient feedback from both a qualitative and quantitative perspective.

The team at Mindspot have 13 years of Patient-Centered Needs Research experience. We partner with patients, caregivers, patient advocacy groups, doctors, neurologists, nurses, healthcare organizations and the pharmaceutical industry. Our team of experienced professionals and caring Moderators conduct patient and caregiver groups with adults and adolescents. We have been meeting people with extra challenges on their terms since 2006. Many populations of people – those with mobility challenges or chronic illness often find it difficult to drive to a focus group facility or physical location. We bring the group experience and conversation to them. We create an opportunity for people who live with a chronic illness or have specific challenges to interface with others facing the same circumstances. These affinity groups not only provide Patient needs assessments complying with Patient-Focused Drug Development (PFDD), but also a unique and appreciated experience for the patient population. We often arrange online groups with patient and caregiver populations in the United States, Canada, and Europe.

The conscientious and caring team at Mindspot is familiar with the FDA’s 21st Century Cures Act. Using a variety of qualitative and quantitative research methodologies we facilitate and collect Patient-centered understanding, feedback and input for various stages of Patient-Focused Drug Development.

Mindspot is a global research company and can reach many low incident populations around the world. Our quantitative and analytical skills are effective for informing clinical trials; as well as, naming clinical trials, collecting patient experience data and patient needs feedback for developing patient-centric outcomes. Mindspot is providing quantitative generalizability using methodologically sound processes and procedures to ensure that patient experience data is robust, rigorous and adheres to best practices. We can conduct this work in any language. As a full-service provider, we supply incentives and fulfillment for individuals and/or organizations that participate. We understand living with a chronic condition comes with some degree of patient burden. When patients participate in our research we provide incentives as a token of our appreciation. This may be a monetary stipend for their time or a donation to a Patient Advocacy Organization they care about. We’ve spent years building good relationships with our Patient Advocacy Groups and Clients. Our goal is to help improve patient outcomes and therapies and contribute to a better quality of life.
