“The written conflict of interest policy is regularly and consistently monitored with compliance enforced by the corporate integrity committee. The scope of this policy includes the directors, officers, and senior executives.

Any conflict resulting in ineligibility for or removal from the board or specific committees include the following: a. Repeated, intentional failure to disclose a conflict of interest. B. Having a family member who is a senior executive for the hospital. C. A material investment or employment relationship involving an interested person in an asc, a proprietary hospital, or nursing facility within the hospital's service area that is not owned by the hospital. Annual disclosures are required setting forth all business and other affiliations, which relate in any way to the hospital. The committee recommends the disqualification or removal of interested persons when necessary and reports to the board those directors which the committee has determined meet the definition of independent director.”
