Why Your Clinical Trial Contract Is Leaving Cash on the Table

Clinical research sites lose money when sponsor contracts skip the real costs of running a study. In this episode, Darshan breaks down how to protect your site by building a detailed, task-based budget instead of accepting broad lump-sum payments. He explains why every activity needs to be itemized, from screen failures and pharmacy prep to coordinator overtime and regulatory time. You’ll hear practical tips on tying costs to CPT codes, adding overhead where possible, and making sure you can bill for out-of-scope work like unexpected SAEs and follow-up. He also highlights a commonly overlooked issue: what gets paid when the contract ends. Chart reviews, data queries, and PI closeout time all need clear language. If it’s not written down, it won’t get paid. This quick guide helps sites negotiate smarter and stay financially healthy.
