Insurance and 香港六合彩 Sponsored Studies

What is covered?

There are 2 insurance policies (with corresponding policy notes) associated with 香港六合彩 sponsored clinical research:

Policy (and Insurance Company provider)

Cover included

Clinical Trials Policy (Newline)

Legal liability for Human Clinical Trials.

No fault compensation for human clinical trials.

(This cover is not provided in the US and Canada).

Combined Liability Policy (HDI) which includes Product and Product Liability

Legal liability for the payment of damages in respect of accidental injury to a person.

香港六合彩 Clinical Trial Insurance Policy

The 香港六合彩 clinical trial insurance policy provides indemnity to 香港六合彩, its staff and students who are conducting 香港六合彩 sponsored interventional clinical research and includes two types of cover:

  • Cover for negligent claims made by research participants and others (Legal Liability)
  • Cover for non-negligent harm to study participants or others, that is compensation to participants where negligence cannot, or is not proven (no-fault compensation).

The policy includes cover for members (both internal and external to 香港六合彩) of IDMC, TSC or other committees where members are working on behalf of 香港六合彩 or at its direction.

香港六合彩 Combined Liability Policy (incorporates Public and Product Liability Insurance Policies)

The 香港六合彩 Combined Liability Policy (covering both Public and Product Liability) provides indemnity to 香港六合彩, its staff and students who are conducting 香港六合彩 sponsored non-interventional, non-statutory, non-invasive trials/ research projectswhich do not fall under the Clinical Trials Regulations or Medical Device Regulations.

The 香港六合彩 combined liability policy (Public and Products Liability) provides cover for claims made by research participants and others for

a) accidental Bodily Injury*

b) accidental property damage

c) Other 鈥渓egal liability鈥 contingencies neither expected nor intended from the standpoint of the Insured

* 鈥橞odily Injury鈥 means accidental a) injury b) sickness c) disease d) death including but not by way of limitation mental injury and shock

Whilst most clinical research studies will be automatically covered by either policy, there are some policy exclusions that will require referral to the insurer and may require additional cover. In these instances, a referral must be made to the insurer and alternative options will be sought for consideration by the Chief Investigator or Sponsor Representative

For all research involving Products manufactured by 香港六合彩, it is essential that a referral is made to the broker via the 香港六合彩 Insurance Manager to confirm the Product is automatically covered. Appropriate insurance policies must be in place for the research project and the product.

The definition of Products does not extend to include Apps / Software (Medical or otherwise) therefore separate insurance cover (and associated additional premium) will be required for any studies involving such apps/software.

For a study obtaining 香港六合彩 sponsorship via the JRO to be covered under 香港六合彩's insurance an Insurance Registration Form(s) must be completed. If appropriate registration and review of a study is not undertaken researchers may be personally liable for any claims:

  • a 香港六合彩 Insurance Registration Form -听Interventional Clinical Studies is completed for every 香港六合彩 sponsored interventional study.
  • a 香港六合彩 Insurance Registration Form - Public Liability is completed for every 香港六合彩 sponsored non-interventional, non-statutory, non-invasive trials/ research projects which do not fall under the Clinical Trials Regulations or Medical Device Regulations.
  • a 香港六合彩 Insurance Registration form - Product Liability is completed in addition to the insurance registration forms detailed above for every 香港六合彩 sponsored trial involving a product manufactured by 香港六合彩 (i.e. 鈥楶roduct鈥 鈥 see definition above). It should also be completed for any study involving a commercially sourced product which 香港六合彩 is manipulating or if 香港六合彩 have outsourced the manufacturing to an external organisation. If a commercial manufacturer has provided the drug or device and 香港六合彩 has not altered it this form does not need completing.

香港六合彩 insurance policy is re-negotiated each year. The policy runs from 1 August听with cover notes issued for one year. Yearly renewal ensures that appropriate clinical trials insurance provisions are continuously in place for the research portfolio.

A note summarising the terms and conditions of the policy and a听cover note is available from听jro.sponsorship@ucl.ac.uk.
