Call a few providers and find out first hand. Your sampling will need to be thorough so at least a 3% population sample will be required. But that will need to be inclusive of Asian-American ladies, African-American ladies, Native-American ladies, Hispanic-American ladies, MiddleEast-American ladies and of course Caucasian-American ladies. Three percent of about 500 providers listed in the H-town area will mean about 15 visits....at roughly $250 per visit on average....plus $120 per visit for hotel costs....your grant request should ask for $4800 to include a small reimbursement for gasoline. Hell...just make it for $5k total.
Please post your results in the reviews section and give us a run down on your final conclusions. And of course, the name of your product when it goes to market.
