Jeanette may I ask what the approximate cost is? I am seeing wide ranges, some are per-month at $2000-$5000/mo per study, some are $5000/study and one was $39k per study! When you researched did you see anything like this?

!! Hard pass on those costs. I would never. Our license fee with CRIO is 4000 annually or 400 per month (regardless of how many studies).  We were one of the "kick-starter" sites, so I believe they are a bit higher now, but not by much. Additional fees: Archiving fee: 500/study - paid at start-up. Stipend cards: 3 dollars per card, 1 dollar per transaction. Of course, we work these fees into our study budgets.  

We do not use CRIO for  eRegulatory because Veeva Vault is absolutely efficient and 100% free to sites. 

We also don't pay for additional services offered by CRIO like the eSource configuration, because as mentioned earlier, I think the study is ran better when this is configured by the team on the frontline. 

How does the stipend card work if the sponsor uses a vendor like Greenphire? Do you just tell them you have a system and make them reimburse you?

If the sponsor is paying upfront for a vendor like Greenphire, we will definitely use it. I enter stipend payment into CRIO as a payment 'paid outside of CRIO', so it still registers in their system, but we aren't the ones paying the cost upfront. I wish all sponsors would offer that service, but they are few and far between. For the sponsor that doesn't offer the third-party vendor services upfront, then yes - they reimburse yes.
