ACRC Clinic Travel Expense Stipend
AXYS is thrilled to offer a $750 stipend to help families with their travel costs to visit an ACRC (AXYS Clinical and Research Consortium) clinic. Each year, our goal is to award stipends to 10 people with each condition: XXY, XYY, Trisomy X, or XXXY. Those with XXYY, please visit our page for the stipend offered by the XXYY Project.
Notes:
- This stipend is for those with confirmed X or Y variations. It is not for doctor visits to confirm a prenatal screening test.
- It is not to be used for visits with the purpose of being in a research study, as most studies offer their own travel reimbursements.
- Applications are to be submitted prior to the appointment date.
- We encourage all who visit ACRC clinics to join the GALAXY Registry.
- Accepted reimbursable expenses include meals, mileage, plane tickets, and hotels. Receipts must be provided and reasonably priced. If the clinic is based in the United States, reimbursements are capped at the GSA allowable rate based on the region. Individuals may also use the regionally accepted GSA Per Diem Rate. More on these rates can be found at https://www.gsa.gov/travel/plan-book/per-diem-rates. Mileage reimbursement in the United States is set to $.205 per mile. If outside the United States, mileage and per diem reimbursement is based on your country’s reimbursement rate.
We ask that you:
1. Complete this application form. You will be notified that we have received your application.
2. After your visit, you will need to complete the reimbursement form and submit travel-related receipts within 90 days of your appointment date. You will also need to provide a note from the clinic confirming your visit so our accountants are assured that this money was indeed used by someone with an X or Y variation to visit an ACRC clinic. You can be reimbursed for receipt-supported expenses up to $750.
