Clinical Investigation Program (CIP)

Date of Publication:

1/22/2014

Definition:

Programs in which clinical investigations (CIs) are conducted for health sciences education to develop the MHS Force, or CIs are conducted for the advancement of medical science and its military and nonmilitary application to patient care. CIP is funded with DHP O&M funds and may have procurement funds for purchase of equipment as applicable. The CIP may receive DHP RDT&E funding for CIs on health problems encountered by DoD eligible beneficiaries if such investigations are in support of human clinical trials in the DHP RDT&E research areas. The CIP may receive funding on a case by case basis from non-DHP research funds in accordance with applicable federal laws and written agreements with the non-DHP sponsor. Investigations that address medical stability operations must follow DoDI 6000.16 (Reference (s)). CIs may be conducted with funds obtained by grants from another federal agency or other non-federal sources as permissible by law and federal regulations. Military contingency requirements take precedence over the requirements of the CIP.
