New Jersey Chapter: Transforming Stipend and Reimbursement Practices for Trial Participants (ACRP 2025 Conference Replay)
This event will be presenting a replay sessions from the ACRP Conference Library
Event Description:
Research sites often grapple with the complexities of disbursing participant stipends and reimbursements. These challenges stem from unclear stakeholder roles, diverse payment methods (e.g., reloadable cards, cash, checks), federal tax rules, guardianship issues, and ethical considerations for providing payments for clinical trial participation. To address these hurdles, this session will explore creative approaches in this arena, including diverse methods for handling reimbursements, sponsor budget negotiation tactics, and technology systems for efficient and compliant management. The session will emphasize the importance of adhering to federal regulations while considering institutional organizational structures such as centralized or decentralized management of payments and reimbursements. The session will also give attendees the tools and strategies to determine the best solution for their organization
