SMPH REDCap is not required for any type of clinical research study, but is recommended in lieu of a typical spreadsheet, database software or data management application to manage your research study data due to the additional levels of security, audit trails, reporting and exporting functionality it offers.
With SMPH REDCap, members of your study team with data management skills can build and revise the electronic data collection tools (e.g. forms, surveys, etc.).
SMPH REDCap is available at a minimal cost of $200 per REDCap research project per year. The REDCap fees will be charged when the project initially goes into production, and annually thereafter.
