Scheduling Research Appointments

SCHEDULING OUTPATIENT RESEARCH ADMISSIONS

There are generally three possible scenarios when scheduling a study-related appointment for a research subject.  The appointment will:

  • Be limited to research-only services -- no services will be billed to research subject or insurance; any services conducted will be billed to the research account or will be performed at no charge;
  • Involve research-only services and study related standard of care - some services will be billed to subject or insurance and some will be billed to research industrial account.
  • Involve only standard of care – all services will be billed to research subject or insurance.

Please view the Scheduling Research patients for Outpatient Appointments in Cadence for information on how to schedule these different types of visits.

Scheduling Inpatient Research Admissions

For inpatient studies where automatic charges (see below) must be directed to a research account, the Procedure for Scheduling and Admitting OHSU Non CTRC Research Patients must be followed.  Automatic charges are those that are not ordered and are generated by the patient's stay (i.e., room charges, nursing charges during stay, etc.)  Please see the linked procedure for more detail.
