With a very competitive overhead rate of 25% for industry contracts, the cost for our services allows investigators to put more of their funding toward expenses associated with their project.
To support this VA research community, the TVAMRF provides research project contracting, accounts payable, accounts receivable and TVAMRF related HR services in support of the VA investigator and project team.
The TVAMRF offers a gateway into the VA health system’s population of candidate volunteers for industry, cooperative or registry driven clinical trials. The Harry S Truman Memorial VA Hospital in Columbia, MO VA has 38,000 unique patients and 450,000 outpatient visits. For industry sponsor and investigators we provide seamless integration into the VA’s Research and Development committee, Research Pharmacy, volunteer recruitment database as well as assistance with navigating the various VA compliance functions.
For physicians who want to access the VA subject population, TVAMRF eliminates the need to on-board new staff and learn new compliance processes.
Our overhead rate is in line with most industry funded clinical trials at 25% and negotiations with sponsor’s payment schedule are more streamlined. TVAMRF clinical staff are ACRP credentialed and our regulatory, budgeting team has years of experience in contracting responsibilities associated with industry and cooperative clinical trial sponsors.
