1.	Where do companies and Technologies come from? We receive leads on promising companies from our affiliates at universities, incubators, regional associations, trade groups, and economic development organizations. We also attend investment and medical conferences across the United States and around the world. Additionally, we have researchers on three continents scouring the Web and reading trade magazines for the most interesting companies and technologies out there.

2.	How do you decide what companies appear in your reports? The NCTR editorial team identifies companies that offer something novel. Specific focus is placed on university-based startup companies, development-stage companies with promising innovations and small or little-known companies with disruptive technology. Using extensive industry experience, our editors look for technologies that have the potential to address unmet market needs and significant issues facing the medical and life science communities.

3.	What is difference between General and Specific Reports? Specific Reports contain summaries of the medical devices, biotechnology, pharmaceutical therapies and other developments pertaining to one therapeutic area, such as cardiology or patient monitoring. The General Reports-available for Medical Devices, Biotech/Pharma and Health IT and Services-contain summaries of interesting companies and technologies spanning multiple sectors.

4.	Is there an overlap? Yes, about 30% of the companies that appear in a Specific Report will appear in General Report.

5.	What is the difference between the A and B format of your reports? Paid research clients receive reports in the A format, which contains active links to all company profiles and sponsored content featured in the NCTR. We use the B format to keep trial subscribers informed about the latest technologies and to provide them with access to the sponsored content on our website.

6.	What about the companies that don't appear in the report? All reviewed companies are immediately placed into the Advanced Search Database and can be accessed by our research clients. These companies will appear in the OMP database 90 days after they are posted to the Advanced Search Database.

7.	How many reports will I receive? How often will reports be published? We expect to generate two General Reports per month for Medical Devices, Biotech/Pharma, and Health IT and Services. At least one Specific Report will be available each month for each research category.

8.	Can I choose how I receive the NCTR? Can I access reports online? We can send the NCTR to you as an attached PDF or, if you prefer, as an email newsletter containing direct links to company profiles. All reports can also be accessed directly from your NCTR Archive. You will have access to a sample of A and B reports as a trial subscriber; once under contract, you can access the full NCTR Archive of A reports.

9.	Regarding pricing: you have an incentive for early enrollment. When will this incentive end and by how much will subscription fees increase?. We make no commitments to fee schedule, but we expect an increase in research fees in order to keep the NCTR in line with comparable services and to ensure constant improvement of the OMP database. Our early enrollment incentive rewards clients who come early to our network.

10.	Do you offer discounts for bulk purchases? What is the rate for corporate licenses? We offer a discount for bulk purchases if there is a central purchasing: a 15% discount for 2-4 subscribers, a 20% discount for 5-9 subscribers and a 30% discount for 10 or more subscribers. This offer is subject to change. Contact us at research@onemedplace.com for details on a site license package.

11.	What is the Closed Circuit TV? The Closed Circuit TV is a comprehensive video archive available only to research clients. We expect to release the Closed Circuit TV in September, though clients will have access to interviews with approximately 400 CEOs of emerging companies through its Beta format. Many of the online profiles of companies featured in the NCTR have an accompanying video, also available only to research clients.
