To submit billable hours for hourly projects or Clinical and Translational Science Institute (CTSI) vouchers

  1. Hours should be entered on monthly basis for hourly projects & CTSI vouchers. A reminder email will be sent at the end of each month stating what date to have your monthly entered in order to be billed for that month.

  1. You must fill out one REDCap form per project/PI you worked with. So for each project you are entering hours for, you will need to click the link (https://redcap.link/CFB_hours) that many times (ex: if you worked on 3 projects, click the link and fill out the form 3x)

  1. You can track what you entered each month through email notifications. Please make sure to enter your email address after submitting the form.

  2. You can also track what you entered each month when we share the data pull- we will send out mass email with attached report showing all the hours we pulled for that month before invoicing. Let us know if something looks incorrect.

Share with investigators who want to submit request for biostatistical support

  1. PIs should fill this form out forHourly AND MOU project requests!
  2. Hourly vs. MOU project requests
  • Hourly Projects: If this is a request to work with a biostatistician at their hourly rate (i.e., no MOU is in place), the statistician will receive an email from Shanessa.Rees@osumc.edu with a unique link to fill out a Cost Estimate Form. It is also encouraged for the biostatistician and investigator to meet to discuss project expectations and fee structure prior to beginning work. The statistician's cost estimate responses will auto-send to the requesting investigator's email upon completion. The investigator is then asked to review the cost estimate and is provided a link to provide their signature of approval in REDCap. After this step, collaboration may ensue.
  • MOU Projects: If an investigator asks for assistance with a new project through an existing MOU, please still ask them to fill out the project request form to help us keep track. Once the PI submits the form, the biostatistician on the MOU will simply reach out for an initial meeting to discuss project expectations. If expectations are agreeable, collaboration may ensue.
