The Quest for Compensation for Research-Related Injury in the United States: A New Proposal

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  01 January 2021

Abstract

In the U.S., there is no requirement for research sponsors to compensate human research subjects who experience injuries as a result of their participation. In this article, we review the moral justifications that compel the establishment of a better research-related injury compensation system. We explore how other countries and certain institutions within the U.S. have adopted various systems of compensation. The existence of these systems demonstrates both that the U.S. lags behind other nations in its protection of human research subjects and that the establishment of a compensation system is both practical and feasible. We then examine factors which have prevented the U.S. from establishing its own compensation system. We consider possible alternatives for the U.S. by examining the advantages and disadvantages of both established and proposed systems. We offer a new proposal that addresses the justice concerns which compel the establishment of a national compensation system, distributes the burdens of such a system on multiple stakeholders that benefit from research, and has the additional advantage of minimizing the administrative and logistical challenges associated with initiating such a system.

(In her 2011 testimony to the PCSBI, Karen Moe, Director & Assistant Vice Provost for Research, University of Washington Human Subjects Division, challenged the assumption that private insurers or Medicare cover the costs from research-related injury. “Medicare will cover the cost of ‘routine complications’ for clinical trials that are covered,” she said. “That doesn't cover a lot of unanticipated problems. Private insurers are even more reluctant to cover the costs of adverse events that occur in clinical trials.”); Also see Cho, H.L., Danis, M., and Grady, C., “The Ethics of Uninsured Participants Accessing Healthcare in Biomedical Research: A Literature Review,” Clinical Trials 15, no. 5 (2018): 509521, at 517.
