Up until now, statistical support in GKT School of Medicine (formerly UMDS) has been largely covered by a single grant. The has been no charge for the individual projects. In future, this may have to change. I would appreciate any advice on how to charge for statistical advice. How do you approach it within your institution? One approach is to expect the cost of statistical advice to be written into any grant proposals. Is this workable? Is 3% of the total figure reasonable? More? Less? If not, how can the rates be set? By size of project (number of subjects, number of repeat measurements)? Should we be charging by the hour? Any other ideas?
