Ryan,
The National Institutes of Health trials enroll folks from all over the world. There's no payment involved from the patient, and they don't deal with insurance companies at all. It's all on their tab.
I'm not sure how their travel compensation works for folks from other countries; they probably won't pay for the trip for screening.
You've met their AA guy, Dr. Scheinberg. Maybe he's got something going. If you don't have enough internet to search the clinicaltrials.gov database, let me know and I'll do some searching for you.
Take Care!
Greg
