PARTICIPATION IN CLINICAL RESEARCH STUDIES
Generally, clinical research studies require participants to spend time with others in our comfortable and attractive facility. Your time commitment may be as simple as a few hours to an overnight stay, a couple of weekends, or several days in a row.
Compensation for each program varies depending on several factors, such as:
- The number and length of stays or visits to our facility
- Any lifestyle restrictions
- The number, types and frequency of procedures involved
Average compensation may range from $350 to $500 per day, depending on the study. Since we opened the doors of our clinical research organization in 1994, QPS has had an estimated payout of nearly $50 million to participants. We are proud to make a positive impact in the local community.
