The bed charge (7/05) is $1400 (midnight census). The Medical Center
will adjust the bed charge to our cost (7/05 - $894.36). Research
rates for additional ancillary charges should be negotiated with the
provider and included as possible expenses on bulk account
applications.
The Core Laboratory does not usually perform assays for category D
studies. Industry studies requiring special assays preformed in the
Core Laboratory will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis and
charged according to the cost of performing a particular assay. The
cost will be determined by the Core Laboratory Director, Paul Mills,
or the Core Lab Manager, Srikrishna Khandrika at x36796.
Computer and statistician services for industry studies are only
provided on a time available basis and will be recharged.
- $45/hr for Computer/Informatics Manager Consultation
- $73/hr for Statistician Consultation
If outpatient research subjects require meals, contact the GCRC Nutritionist at
x36795. Provide a recharge index number for the Medical Center
kitchen to order meal trays. A snack of muffin, juice and coffee can
be provided by the CRC for fasting studies or long outpatient
visits.
