Hidden Costs Of Conducting Clinical Research – Sunday, March 1st

This workshop shows you exactly what to charge and how to justify it. Receive contract language examples, a complete list of billable start-up and closeout items, document storage checklists, and worksheets to calculate your true costs and pricing models. Walk away ready to negotiate budgets that actually cover your costs.

Attendees will receive:

  • Four (4) contact hours
  • Contract language and justification examples
  • Comprehensive study start-up and closeout items list
  • Long-term document storage checklist
  • Worksheets to calculate pricing models, breakeven and staff productivity
