Clinical Leader Live: Benchmark Pricing Model For CROs

CRO pricing is a challenge for many small to mid-sized companies. Understanding what your CRO is charging you, and whether those charges are appropriate for the work performed, is a difficult task for any clinical operations manager.

Benchmarking is one approach that seems to be growing in popularity. This approach involves establishing standard work order templates to understand how long specific tasks should take and how much they should cost. The benchmarks can then be varied depending on the criteria in certain types of trials.

Learn more about benchmarking by viewing this archived Clinical Leader Live discussion with Regeneron Pharmaceuticals on the process they are undertaking to make it a reality.
