Common questions from physicians

Who can participate in Sermo surveys?

Sermo surveys are for verified physicians and other healthcare professionals only.

How does Sermo verify I’m a physician?

Sermo confirms medical license and credential information during sign-up. This verification keeps survey invitations limited to qualified, practicing physicians.

Do all specialties get the same number of survey invitations?

No. Invitation volume depends on current research demand in your specialty and sub-specialty, which changes over time as different therapeutic areas are studied.

Can I see the compensation before I start a survey?

Yes. Estimated time and compensation are shown before you begin, so you can decide whether a specific survey is worth it.

How can I receive relevant survey invitations?

Complete your profile thoroughly, respond to survey invitations promptly, and stay active in the community. Members who keep their profiles updated and respond quickly to invitations tend to do best.

Is participation required to stay a member?

No. Membership is free and voluntary. You can take as many or as few surveys as you choose, or use Sermo only for the community and clinical discussion.
