How can I use the Consent to be Contacted for Research protocol to recruit patients for my study?
The CCR protocol allows researchers to recruit patients who meet your study inclusion criteria and have consented to be contacted for research.
Can I see the patient’s Consent to be Contacted for Research preference in Epic/MyChart?
No, researchers will not be able to see if a patient has indicated that they are interested in being contacted for research through their chart directly and should contact ccr-support@med.cornell.edu for more information.
Who is eligible for the Consent to be Contacted for Research protocol?
Any patient with a visit at NYP-WCM (including East and Lower Manhattan campuses) and/or NYP-Columbia is eligible for the CCR protocol.
How do patients consent to be contacted for research?
During Epic MyChart (also known as Connect) eCheck-In, patients are given the opportunity to indicate their preference (Yes, No, or Undecided) and sign a consent form to participate in CCR. Patient preferences are then stored in a secure database.
