Xxxxx Law. In order to comply with federal Xxxxx Law requirements, the Institution cannot make payments to non-employed physicians or physician private practices for services related to a clinical study until a contract is in place. The contract must detail the scope of work (services) that the physician investigator will provide relative to the study. Therefore, a Xxxxx Law contract must be in place prior to a physician investigator providing bill-able services on a clinical study. If the physician investigator does provide services and his practice invoices MMC, MMC will be unable to pay the practice for the services since an appropriate contract was not in place. If a fully executed clinical study agreement is in place between MMC and the sponsor, patients, however, can be enrolled into the study (as long as other appropriate approvals are in place [IRB]).
