Description
| Tax compliance has long created challenges for sites, sponsors, CROs, and trial participants. The 'One Big Beautiful Bill' raises the 1099 reporting threshold for clinical trial stipends from $600 to $2,000, effective January 1, 2026, with future adjustments for inflation. This change may reduce administrative burden for sites while making it easier for lower-income patients to participate in clinical trials. While this is an important step forward, additional changes may still be needed to fully address participant payment and reimbursement challenges across the clinical research landscape. |
