SCRS Site Invoiceables Toolkit

Identify Hidden Study Costs and Strengthen Site Financial Sustainability

Site Invoiceables Toolkit

Clinical research sites often perform study activities that are never invoiced or reimbursed. Over time, these overlooked tasks can create financial strain and impact site sustainability.

The SCRS Site Invoiceables Toolkit helps sites identify commonly missed billable activities and strengthen budgeting and invoicing processes. Use the calculators and resources below to estimate potential invoiceables and better understand the true cost of clinical trial operations.

Site Invoiceables Guide

Understand the true costs behind protocol budgets and ensure your site is accounting for every associated expense. Before diving in, we recommend reviewing the introductory section of this document to get the most out of the toolkit.

Invoiceables Calculation Spreadsheet

Use this calculator to estimate the costs associated with commonly missed billable activities outlined in the Site Invoiceables Guide and make sure your budget reflects the full scope of your site’s work. This resource is exclusively available to SCRS members.

Clinical Research Terminology (CRT) Codes

The American Medical Association maintains an index of clinical tests and procedures: Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) codes. Study budgets may also include non-standard clinical tests and procedures, as well as activities, such as training, that do not have CPT codes because they are not clinical tests or procedures. Clinical Research Terminology (CRT) codes cover hundreds of investigative site activities without CPT codes, including routine, hidden and overhead costs.

Fair Market Value (FMV) Calculator

Conducting principled negotiations—not just bargaining sessions—is based on quantitative measures of site performance. The Site Council Value Calculator assesses site performance across 10 dimensions, each of which can be prioritized and scored. Calculate your site’s value for a study to determine which dimensions matter the most.
