With Central Rating, cognitive and clinical outcome measures are administered by a focused, independent team of highly qualified raters via telehealth (video or phone).
In contrast to the traditional approach where raters are dispersed across many clinical research sites, the entire cohort of Cogstate raters can be uniformly and regularly trained and calibrated to increase reliability, standardizations, and scoring accuracy. This approach also allows sites to have rapid access to experienced professionals and allows participants to be assessed from the comfort of their home, reducing the number of site visits–supporting faster and more diverse recruitment.
