The yale new haven health system conflict of interest policy and individual annual disclosure form applies to a pool of employees, board members and non-board members serving on board committees. These "covered individuals" are required to complete a conflict of interest disclosure statement, upon beginning employment or otherwise becoming a covered individual and annually thereafter. Covered individuals are also required to promptly report changes to their most recently completed disclosure statement. These disclosure statements and reports are reviewed by the office of privacy and corporate compliance and/or the legal and risk services department to ensure compliance with the conflict of interest policy. If a potential conflict arises, the president and ceo would consult with the board chairperson and the legal and risk services department to develop a plan to mitigate any actual conflict of interest. For example, a voting board or committee member would be required to recuse himself or herself from voting on matters with which she or he had an actual or potential conflict and the actual or potential conflict would be disclosed to other voting members.”
