How often can one screen?

[kkingccrimson]

The 2 nearest clinics for me,are Quintiles and Vince...
If one screens,say at Quintiles on a Tuesday,can you than go and screen at Vince..a few days later?
If I screen for one study at either of the above clinincs,how soon can i go back to that same clinic to screen for another?
I am aware that you do have to wait 30 days after you check out of 1 study before you can participate in another.

Yes, you can screen at multiple places in a short period of time. Clinics don't much like it when you screen, pass the screening, and then cancel (because you go in somewhere else). It takes away a spot that someone more viable could have had. Some will punish you. Usually, the punishment is soing like, you can't screen for another study there for X amount of time.

As to your other question, you can't re-screen somewhere until you are no longer in line for the study you previously screened for at that clinic.

Thanks for your answer.
Are you saying that if I screen for one study,I can not screen for another until it's known whether or not I make it in to the study I already screened for?
So,if i screen for soing called healthy volunteers 1,I can't screen for healthy volunteers 2 until they let me know if I will be in the healthy volunteers study 1?

actually, the pra /quintiles/vince triangle is really particular about multiple screenings. they've been known to ban people for it, although that's highly unethical. so ask them what their rules are, and record the call, and do it the way they tell you. anywhere else, except maybe covance, that'd be no problem.

Per clinic, yes.

Hi, how are you. 
This is Alex from Toronto Canada.
Im very interested in participating in a study in the states. I have a couple of questions, do you know how does the payment work? Do you need to have an american citizenship to be part of this research. Im a healthy volunteer, Ive succesfully completed quite  a few studies here in Canada.
Im urgently saving money for eye surgery and gynecomastia. IM desperate.
Itd be awesome if you could help me . Thanks!!!
