    How to Get Paid for Medical Studies

  1. Step 1

    Look for a trustworthy company. Call the companies that interest you and set an appointment to tour the facility. This will give you an idea what they do and how they operate.

  2. Step 2

    Ask about their programs. Get as much information from the company as possible. Also do your own research on the company. Find out how much they pay per study. Check for testimonials from other users.

  3. Step 3

    Apply for a study. You must fill out an application or call to sign up. Give them your correct information because they will use this to send payment after the study. When you apply, you are not bound to go through with the study.Most companies will give you a physical that you must pass before you will be accepted for the study.

  4. Step 4

    Perform the study. You must cooperate in the study and follow the rules. You may be asked to stay overnight for observation or for at least 24 hours. During this time you can do any activity permitted by the facility. They may draw your blood for a study. After the study you must wait a specified amount of time before you can participate in another study.

  5. Step 5

    Get paid. You likely should get paid two to three days after the study is complete by mail or by their personal method of payment. Check with the company if you are missing payment. Your amount paid will depend on the type of study.

  6. Step 6

    Give referrals. Another way to get paid is to take a healthy friend with you. Some companies pay for referrals for each new volunteer.
