External modules either extend REDCap's current functionality, i.e. add a new feature, or customize and enhance REDCap's native behavior and appearance, i.e. add options to an existing feature.
Some external modules are created by collaborating development teams outside the core REDCap project. OHSU REDCap may include limited add-ons of this nature, based on special request and careful review.

Requesting an External Module
Please send an email inquiry to the REDCap Team at redcap@ohsu.edu. Include in your email some details about what you are trying to accomplish by using the external module. We'll schedule an initial meeting to gather information to assess the feasibility and create an estimate.
The estimate will be sent to the project builder and PI. Billing information, as described in the estimate email, will be required for the REDCap Team to move forward with installing the module.
