How to Expense

As a valued member of the NRDL+ newsletter community, you're in an esteemed company alongside leaders from top-tier life sciences companies, prominent university researchers, and expert consultants from both leading consultancies and independent practices.

Our members use the newsletter both as a monitoring tool and an educational resource to keep abreast of the changing access landscape for innovative medicines in China as part of their professional duties. Considering its value to your work, it would be entirely justified to consider seeking reimbursement for your Debrief membership costs from your employer or client firm.

Support for Reimbursement includes:

Receipt for Membership Purchase:

Upon subscribing to any of our premier membership tiers, you will receive a detailed receipt. This can be forwarded directly to your team for reimbursement purposes.

Email Template for Manager Approval:

Should you require approval from your manager, we provide a customizable email template to facilitate your request to the budget holder.

When requesting reimbursement, emphasize the newsletter’s value to your role—whether it saves time, provides educational content, or supports your strategic planning and research focused on China. Employers value resources that offer tangible benefits to the organization.

Illustrate how subscribing to Debrief is essential. Convince them that without this resource, your team risks falling behind, whereas access to it ensures you stay ahead. Decision-makers tend to favor investments that solve immediate problems—think of this as a necessary tool rather than a nice-to-have.

Proposed Email to Your Manager:

Subject: Request for Reimbursement: NRDL+ Debrief Membership Costs

Dear [Manager’s Name],

I am currently benefiting from NRDL+, a newsletter that provides in-depth analyses of access policy and pathways for innovative medicines in China. This resource is trusted by industry leaders, including top executives from 15 of the top 30 global pharmaceutical companies, and offers valuable insights into the Chinese market.

The newsletter has significantly reduced the time I spend tracking developments and has deepened my understanding of the complexities involved in China's innovative medicine sector.

I would like to upgrade to the [Professional or Executive] tier to fully leverage this resource. The membership fees are [$3,225/year for the Professional or $6,450/year for the Executive tier], including taxes.

Considering the time savings and the enhanced market insights provided, the investment in this newsletter has already proven its value. It has enriched my approach to our planning and execution concerning China.
