SIMPLIFY AND SPEED UP PARTICIPANT PER DIEMS OR REIMBURSEMENTS WITH COLPITTS CLINICAL’S RELOADABLE VISA CARD

Colpitts Clinical has successfully managed over $5 million in trial expenses in just the past year. Enhance the efficiency of your trial with Reloadable Visa Cards that minimize administrative burden and provide peace of mind to participants who won’t have to wait for weeks or months to be reimbursed.

Participants receive per-diem payments or reimbursements via Reloadable Visa Cards, sent by Colpitts Clinical. Patients receive clear instructions on how and where to use their cards, as well as information on which expenses are approved by the trial sponsor. In case the participant involvement in the trial is extended, their card can easily continue to be credited with any prepaid per diems or expense reimbursements allows by the study. Colpitts Clinical provides a personal and confidential service to patients when organizing their travel arrangements and compensation. We work with a number of leading biotechnology, pharmaceutical companies, and CROs and understand the importance of keeping sensitive information protected.

BENEFITS OF USING THE RELOADABLE VISA CARD

  • Available for use in over 200 countries where Visa is accepted

Stipend Management Payments

  • Stipend: A patient is being paid for participation (i.e. milestone payments, compensation, lost wages, etc.); this is not the same as per diems or reimbursements for patient paid expenses. Stipends are considered taxable in the U.S. if the participant receives $600 or more in a calendar year.
  • Colpitts Clinical offers comprehensive stipend management services, including:
    • Customizable solutions for sponsors for U.S. citizens
    • Collection of W9 forms from patients
    • Tracking all payments throughout the trial
    • Monthly invoicing of stipends with payment details
    • Crediting stipends on a Reloadable Visa Card
    • Issuing an U.S. IRS 1099 form to each participant who received over $600 in stipend payments.
