NEW JULY 2023: The MCW Office of Research (MCW OOR) is now requiring use of OnCore for all new studies that involve Froedtert Health Charges and/or MCW Professional Charges requiring Epic billing. MCW OOR is defining “New” protocols as those that have not yet initiated any pricing/budget components as of July 10, 2023. If Budget Development/Pricing activities have already been initiated prior to July 10, 2023, then pre-reviews must occur with the MCW OOR. For studies that do not require entry into OnCore Financials at this time, an exception memo from the MCW OOR will be required to be submitted with the OCRICC application. For all other new studies, protocol entry into OnCore is strongly recommended per the OnCore protocol decision tree. More details can be found in the OnCore Financials Toolbox. Please contact the MCW Financials Team at [email protected] with questions.


Will this project involve Froedtert Health Charges and/or MCW Professional Charges requiring Epic billing AND use OnCore Financials?
Will this project otherwise be built in OnCore for study status and subject status tracking?
Will this study require a Study Record (RSH) to be created in EPIC?
Will this study use Florence eBinders?
Check the Florence eBinders Support page if you are unsure.
Do you have an IRB Number?
Will the MCW IRB rely on an outside IRB for this project?

You will be required to upload the completed reliance agreement or the e-mail statement of approval from the MCW IRB Reliance team.

Enter zeros if no NCT number will ever be assigned.

Project Information

Type of Project
With waiver of consent and authorization
For example:
  • Consent management-only projects (Consenting Froedtert Health patients for access to their PHI is the only Froedtert Health resource being used, with no invoicing or claims management requirements)
  • Invoice-only projects where there are three (3) or less Froedtert Health resources to be ordered as normal and invoiced to the study (for example, Froedtert Health imaging services such as MRI, CT, X-ray, Echo)
  • Use of only Froedtert Health IDS, but all other activities take place in MCW space
  • Request for Letter of Support (LOS) for Grant Application (upload a statement of commitment - e-mail or other documentation - from the leadership supporting your project if applicable)
  • Request for EPIC RSH Study record build when there is no FH impact but a record is needed to facilitate MCW billing needs or MyChart Recruitment Reporting.

*STOP*

You do not need to get Froedtert Health administrative approval if your project is solely data collection with an IRB-approved waiver of consent and authorization. All you will need to do is complete the web-based Accounting Log Form.

*STOP*

For this type of request, use the Additional Details free-text box to communicate your intended plan in lieu of an Operational Feasibility Tool.  Upload the documents that are pertinent to your limited-use project (protocol summary, ICF, imaging guidelines, etc.). 

 

For CCCTO Clinical Trials Only: Will the MCA be outsourced?

For this type of Innovative Care project, a completed Operational Feasibility Tool is NOT required at time of this application.

Does this project require services, resources, or support from a Froedtert Health affiliate or will it be conducted in a Froedtert Health affiliate location?

*STOP*

You do not need FH administrative approval if your project will not use any Froedtert resources and all research activities will be conducted in MCW space. If you are unsure whether the resources involved in your project are FH resources, do not complete an application, contact us at [email protected] or 414-805-4082 to discuss.

Does this project require radiology, cardiology, or other images to be sent to sponsor throughout project?
Does this project require pricing for any Froedtert Health resource/service(s)?
Did you obtain any preliminary pricing via the Froedtert Health Research Chargemaster?
Do you require any additional pricing for Froedtert Health resources or services?
Did you obtain preliminary pricing from OCRICC via the Request for Froedtert Health Research Pricing Application?

Service Descriptions and CPT Code Instructions

For most efficient service, research staff should identify CPT codes for the services needing to be priced.

    If there is no CPT code, research staff should identify a CPT code for a comparable procedure, making note of this detail on the request form.
    If the correct CPT code or comparable CPT code/procedure is not known, research staff should ask the sponsor or PI.
    If the sponsor cannot provide, or PI does not know, the research team should contact their MCW Department resource that manages professional billing/coding.

Research staff can expect that, if they provide CPT codes for each service when requesting pricing, OCRICC will be able to complete these requests within 5 business days. Researchers submitting pricing requests without corresponding CPT codes may experience a delayed turnaround.
