The best business and economy news from Dominica
Provided by AGPLOS ANGELES, May 07, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MedTech Breakthrough, an independent market intelligence organization that recognizes the most innovative companies, technologies, and products in the global digital health and medical technology market, today announced that Suvoda, a global leader in clinical trial technology, has been selected as winner of the “Best Patient Relationship Management Solution” award in the 10th annual MedTech Breakthrough Awards program.
The 2026 MedTech Breakthrough Award recognizes the breakthrough innovation of Suvoda’s patient app, which offers a single streamlined mobile experience where patients can manage the essentials of clinical trial participation.
Patients in clinical trials often have to manage ongoing financial costs, frequent clinic visits, data reporting, and logistical coordination. These demands can place additional strain on patients, particularly those managing complex or serious conditions, as well as on the clinical sites responsible for supporting them. The Suvoda App centralizes key activities and details, connecting patients and sites through a single mobile experience that simplifies participation and improves communication.
For example, patients can schedule visits, complete questionnaires about their health status, view travel details and itineraries, and manage payments, including uploading receipts on their own phones or tablets, or ones provided by the study sponsor if needed. Automated reminders and notifications keep participants on top of visits, questionnaires, and key tasks, helping studies stay on track.
Self‑serve, in‑app scheduling lets patients pick available site appointment times within their visit windows, while calendar integrations will help them fit trial visits into their everyday schedules. Patients log in with a simple, secure sign-in and can access a dashboard with assigned tasks.
Additionally, with the embedded Greenphire Patient Payments, patients can submit travel receipts and receive participation stipends and reimbursements quickly in their local currency. They can choose the payment method that works best for them, including direct-to-bank, and virtual or physical debit cards.
“We built this app with patients in mind. How they think, what they need, and what makes things easier in their day-to-day lives,” said Jagath Wanninayake, Suvoda CEO. “When everything is in one place and works the way people expect, it removes a lot of the friction that comes with trial participation. Thank you to MedTech Breakthrough for this recognition. We plan to keep focusing on making the trial experience more manageable and more human for everyone involved.”
Now celebrating its 10th anniversary, the MedTech Breakthrough Awards program has spent a decade recognizing the companies driving meaningful progress and improving patient care across the global health and medical technology industry. The program spans a wide range of categories – including Telehealth, Clinical Administration, Patient Engagement, Electronic Health Records (EHR), Virtual Care, Medical Devices and beyond – honoring the innovations reshaping how care is delivered worldwide.
This year's program drew a record-breaking number of nominations from leading companies and startups across more than 20 countries, reflecting the growing global impact and momentum of the digital healthcare industry.
“The Suvoda app unifies the tasks that matter most to clinical trial participants into one mobile experience. Most participants juggle multiple portals, apps, and communication channels just to complete basic study tasks. Hurdles, from time commitment and logistics to expenses, can deter trial participation, with most delays due to deficient recruitment and retention,” said Steve Johansson, managing director, MedTech Breakthrough. “Where many patient engagement solutions solve one step of the journey, the Suvoda app centralizes key information and steps, significantly enhancing the trial experience so participants are more likely to stay enrolled in the trial. Congratulations on winning ‘Best Patient Relationship Management Solution.’”
