“The general counsel's office annually surveys each director and officer and requires affirmation that the conflict of interest policy has been read and understood. The results of the survey are reported to the governance committee of the saddleback memorial medical center, the parent organization, which is responsible for governance, oversight, and nominations. Conflicts are evaluated for being occasional or disabling in nature. The general counsel makes the initial evaluation and advises the governance committee in its deliberations. If an occasional conflict is identified, the general counsel advises the subject director or officer and governance committee in a "rebuttable presumption" type process. Should a disabling conflict be identified, the director or officer resigns or is removed upon the recommendation of the general counsel, governance committee, and board of directors. In addition, an annual notice is sent by email (to each employee with access to email) regarding the acceptance of gifts and corresponding policies.”
