Medical Advisory Board Review
Medical Advisory Board claims to be a survey site for healthcare professionals. However, the website seems like a relic from the ’90s, and the incentives are very low.
How to get started
To join the survey panel:
- Visit the Medical Advisory Board website and click the “Join Today” button.
- Fill out personal details and wait for a verification email.
- After this, verify your account to get started participating in online surveys.
Membership is free, but there is no mobile app available where you can take surveys. Apparently, only healthcare professionals are accepted to join. This site is also available to international members.
What about the user experience?
The website’s interface seems like a relic from the 1990s. It’s hard to imagine this as a successful and engaging community of healthcare professionals in competition with other advanced platforms such as Sermo and M3 Global Research.
How much can you make on Medical Advisory Board?
One point is equivalent to 1 cent, so 100 points are equivalent to $1.00. Each survey earns about $7 to $10. You earn 10 points for screener surveys. You can redeem your earnings when you reach the withdrawal limit of 2500 points or $25. The site’s payment platforms include PayPal, cash checks, and check donations.
These incentive levels might seem high in comparison with consumer surveys but compared with other healthcare professionals’ panels, the reward level is suspiciously low. Physicians would normally earn an honorarium of at least $100 per hour.
What can prevent me from cashing out?
As this survey site is strictly for healthcare professionals, your answers must be accurate and truthful; the site has checks that will easily detect if you are not attentive and honest when taking surveys. Answers that fail these checks will have your submissions rejected. One membership is allowed per person; any attempts to create multiple accounts in the hope of answering more surveys is considered fraud, resulting in your account being terminated. Any money accumulated in your account will be forfeited.
