Clinical research studies, also called clinical trials, test how well different types of medical care work and if they're safe. Good examples are how well a new cancer drug works, or if a new surgical method is better than an existing one.
Medicare covers some costs, like office visits and tests, in certain qualifying clinical research studies.
