 ====== BIAC Subject Payment Procedures ====== ====== BIAC Subject Payment Procedures ======
  
-====SEE NEW INSTRUCTIONS AT BOTTOM (EFFECTIVE MARCH 12012)====+BIAC offers a short-term cash fund to BIAC experimenters who make cash payments to research subjects who participate in scans using BIAC facilities.  BIAC also provides these payments to subjects who participate in behavioral sessions run by __core__ BIAC faculty members and their labs.  If you fall into one of these categories and would like to start using our fundplease contact [[fund@biac.duke.edu]] to find out more about getting started.
  
-==Cash and/or Parking Pass Withdrawals and Deposits==+If you need a copy of the current payment sheet packet, please email [[fund@biac.duke.edu]].
  
-The experimenter conducting a study will come to the front office (at Hock Plaza) to request money and/or parking passes.  The same procedure should be used to return any unused money and/or parking passes. (If an amount larger than $100 is requested, please provide at least 24 hours’ notice to be sure we have enough on hand. We also require advanced notice if specific denominations are requested, regardless of the amount.)+//Or you can find it locally at
 +//
  
-The experimenter will complete the form in the green binder in the front office area with the following information:+Word Format [[\\Munin\Data\Docs\Forms_and_Labels\Subject_Payment_Forms\Subject_Payment_Form_Packet2015.docx]]
  
-  He or she will circle withdrew or deposited to determine the type of transaction.+__A few reminders: 
 +__ 
 +  Subjects will not be paid if they do not include a social security number.  Remember to get the SSN before giving the cash to your subject! 
 +  * Payment sheets must be fully completed before they are submitted.  Future cash requests will not be fulfilled unless all prior withdrawals/payment sheets are fully reconciled. 
 +  * If you have any questions regarding the payment sheets, or the BIAC cash fund for research subjects, please email [[fund@biac.duke.edu]].
  
-  * The date he/she is withdrawing/depositing the money.+----
  
-  * The experiment's name. +=====NEW INSTRUCTIONS AS OF FEBRUARY 6, 2012=====
- +
-  * The amount of money he/she wishes to withdraw/deposit. +
- +
-  * The number of parking passes he/she wishes to withdraw/deposit. +
- +
-  * His/her signature.  Print last name if signature is not legible. +
- +
-A front office staff member will initial as a witness and provide the experimenter with the amount requested or deposit the amount the experimenter is returning. +
- +
-At this time, the experimenter should count the amount of cash given to confirm that it is the correct amount. +
- +
-If checking out money or parking passes for more than one experiment at a time, please use more than one withdrawal/deposit form.  This helps avoid any confusion when reconciling. +
- +
-In order to keep enough cash on hand for our research studies, it is necessary that we receive payment sheets back in a timely manner.  If you have unused cash or completed payment sheets lying around, please bring them to the BIAC front office to ensure availability of funds for future studies. +
- +
- +
-==Subject Payment/IRB Disclosure Forms== +
- +
-The first page (or front side) of our subject payment form has the basic payment information as well as the mailing address for the subject.   +
- +
-The following items may be left blank under certain circumstances: +
- +
-  * Exam Number (if it is a behavioral study) +
-  * Permanent address (if same as mailing address) +
-  * Pregnancy test received (if it is a male subject) +
-  * Subject received parking pass (if no pass was given) +
- +
-__//THE SUBJECT MUST PROVIDE A SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER OR THEY WILL NOT BE PAID//__ +
- +
-The second page (or back side) is the IRB disclosure form that must accompany all payment sheets.  Please list your IRB #, cost object, and PI's name where indicated on this form.  Have the subject complete his/her name, address, and social security number (yes, once again).  They must also sign and print their name on this side of the form.   +
- +
-This form is required to show that they understand the tax guidelines. The most common fields left blank on this form are the subject’s printed name and address.  Please be sure this is completed before turning in your payment sheet.  The experimenter does not sign this side of the form. +
- +
-TIP: Many people prefer to create an electronic copy of the payment forms for their particular studies.  They typically have the following fields preset on both sides: cost object, experiment name, IRB #, and PI's Name.  This is fine—just make sure your cost object is correct. +
-  +
-If you do not print double-sided, please put both of these forms paper-clipped together in the subject payment inbox once they are complete.  Do not file the IRB disclosure form with the consent forms. +
- +
-If any required fields are left blank, the experimenter will be contacted to complete it. +
-  +
-It is perfectly fine to print these double-sided.  That is actually the preferred method. +
-  +
-If you need a copy of the current payment sheet packet, please email [[info@biac.duke.edu]]. +

-Or you can find it locally at: +
