Financial Unit
The Financial Unit functions to provide a comprehensive mechanism for
institutional review of clinical research budgets, Medicare coverage analysis,
and training for clinical researchers who need assistance developing budgets. By
adopting a greater role in assisting investigators with budget preparation and
negotiation, especially for industry-sponsored studies, the Financial Unit aims
to shorten the time required for the review and approval process. The group
performs a Medicare coverage analysis when necessary to assist investigators and
the hospital with identifying those procedures that can be billed to Medicare
and/or other third party payers and those that must be billed to a research
account.
