Re: Enrollment Incentives Forster, Marjorie 11 Nov 2009 15:52 EST

Hi Jamie:

It is my understanding at my institution we do not permit incentive payments
to go to a principal investigator involved in the recruitment of
participants in clinical trials.  There would a conflict of interest and
bias associated with the recruitment of participants when incentive payments
are involved.  This is the language taken from UMB's IRB Manual:

"Sponsor agrees that it will not make incentive payments to UMB Personnel or
otherwise compensate UMB Personnel for their involvement in performing the
Study."

Hope this helps.

Marjorie
