You may have been tasked with creating a clinical trial site budget. This is a budget itemising all the costs that will be incurred at the study site. The site budget may be needed To estimate the total cost of that site running part of the trial, as part of a bid to the CRO or sponsor To identify who needs to be reimbursed for each cost item To ascertain whether or not it is feasible to run the trial at that site To ensure that the site is reimbursed for the costs that they incur while running the trial If you are building a site budget, the most important document is the study protocol.
