“MaineGeneral Health's Conflict of Interest Policy requires disclosure of any actual or potential conflict of interest to the Board Chair. Interested persons are prohibited from participating in the governing body's deliberations and decisions regarding any transactions when they have a conflict of interest. If the Board or Committee has reasonable cause to believe that a member has failed to disclose actual or possible conflicts of interest, the Board or Committee shall investigate and then determine by a majority vote whether a conflict of interest exists and whether the violation is grounds for removal from the Board or Committee. There are formal records of these proceedings. In addition, each director, officer, and member of the Board is required to annually complete and sign a Conflict of Interest Disclosure Statement. Employees must disclose in writing to their supervisors any conflicts of interest prior to engaging in transactions or taking positions with MaineGeneral Health. In addition, these disclosures must be approved by the supervisor's manager or, as applicable, the Board Chair, in conjunction with the Human Resources Compliance Officer. If management has reasonable cause to believe that an employee has intentionally failed to disclose a conflict of interest, appropriate disciplinary or corrective action up to and including termination shall be taken. In addition, upon hire or promotion to a management position, all management employees shall complete a Conflict of Interest Disclosure Statement, which will be submitted to the Ethics and Compliance Department for review and reporting to the Chief Compliance Officer, who will record and report each validated conflict of interest to the Board.”

“The Board of Directors is responsible for determining the compensation package for the Chief Executive Officer. An independent compensation consultant advises the Board using comparability data, expert compensation studies and other means. Paid executives who hold voting privileges may not vote or participate in discussions regarding their compensation; however, they may answer questions that will help the Board in its deliberations. The Chief Executive Officer's compensation was last reviewed in November 2016. For other officer and key employee positions, salary structures are developed and maintained based on compensation data for healthcare organizations provided by an independant compensation consultant. This data is reviwed by the CEO to determine salaries that are consistent with non-profit healthcare organizations of a similar size, mision and complexity to our organization. The salary determinations made by the CEO are submitted to and approved by the board of directors.”
