Plain-English Summary
People who participate in medical research studies would not have to pay income taxes on the money they receive as compensation for their participation. This change would apply to clinical trial payments, making it easier for individuals to volunteer for medical research without worrying about tax consequences on those earnings. The change affects both the participants who volunteer for studies and the medical research companies or institutions that conduct the trials.
