Summary: Follow these steps to obtain and distribute scrip for paying participants in clinical trials.
What to do How to do it
1 Obtain department authorization to use scrip.
  1. Notify the fiscal administrator for your clinical trial that you will need scrip.
2 Request scrip.
  1. Complete a Scrip Order Form (Excel) (PDF).
  2. Have your department scrip coordinator sign the form.
  3. Have the person authorized to approve expenditures on the funds sign the form.
    • Your department scrip coordinator can help you obtain the appropriate signature.
  4. Submit the form to Disbursements:
    • Mail to Mail Code 0955

    • or
    • Fax to (858) 534-4621

Note: Allow three working days for issuance of scrip.

3 Pick up your issued scrip and scrip information packet.
  1. Come to Disbursements to receive your scrip order:

4 Review your printed scrip and scrip information packet.
  1. Verify that the printed scrip agrees exactly with your order form.
  2. Sign receipt of the scrip order.
5 Secure your scrip.
  1. Log your scrip by trial name and serial number.
  2. Scrip is like cash, so be sure to keep scrip in a locked receptacle or safe.
6 Distribute scrip to trial participants.
  1. Tell participants they may cash scrip at these locations: Note: Warn participants that scrip expires 60 days from the date of issuance.
  2. For a confidential study, ask the participant to sign a receipt that is retained in a secure location at the department.
  3. For a non-confidential study, maintain a Scrip Issue Log (Excel) (PDF) that the participant signs or initials.
  4. If the total annual compensation to a participant exceeds $600, inform that participant about tax reporting requirements. Contact the Disbursements scrip coordinator for assistance.
7 Certify scrip on a quarterly basis.
  1. Audit the trial's scrip supply on a quarterly basis.
  2. Complete the Certification of Scrip Payments (Excel) (PDF), and submit to Disbursements Scrip Coordinator, Mail Code 0955.
