Invoices to Sponsor in the CRC role Brenna Romero Research Financial Analyst II CTSC Clinical Trials Office

Tracking Patient Visits Patient Visit tracking can be done IN EXCEL spreadsheet or Clinical Trial Management System (CTMS) such as MERGE. Patient visit must be listed in a format where visits and payments can be tracked.  Track patient visits according to the schedule of events in the study protocol. The tracker should show actual visit dates and have a notation indicating what services and procedures were completed.

Patient Visits

Once a visit has been marked complete in CTMS, the coordinator can then see the dollar amount associated with that visit. “Payment for the visit” is the agreed upon amount.

Tracking Procedures There are often procedures that may or may not occur at any given visit that have to be invoiced separately. This information can then be used to invoice the Sponsor for the procedure.

Invoicing Tips The invoice should include all necessary information per the clinical trial agreement such as: patient number visit number protocol number site number PI name date Name and address of the UCD financial contact, this should match the “payee” information listed in the study contract. All checks must be made out to the “Regents of the University of California”.
