“Mercyone has adopted a conflict of interest policy, which sets forth the organization's conflict of interest policy and processes. It applies to all "interested persons" of mercyone, which includes directors, principal officers, key employees, and members of committees with board-delegated powers. Interested persons are expected to discharge their duties in a manner the person reasonably believes to be in the best interests of mercyone and to avoid situations involving a conflict of interest. On an annual basis, interested persons are required to complete a conflict of interest disclosure statement and to affirm their receipt of the conflict of interest policy, compliance with its requirements, and agree to notify the organization of changes impacting their annual disclosure in accordance with the policy. The annual disclosures are provided to the integrity and compliance officer. If a potential conflict is identified, the integrity and compliance officer shares the disclosures with internal legal counsel, from which legal counsel prepares a report for the board chair and ceo. A summary of potential conflicts is reviewed with the board of directors of mercyone (or a delegated committee of the board) on a yearly basis. Interested persons are required to make full disclosure to mercyone of any financial or business interests that might result in or have the appearance of a conflict of interest. The board of directors of mercyone (or a delegated committee of the board) is responsible for the review of transactions to determine whether an actual conflict of interest exists. In the event of an actual conflict, the board (or a delegated committee of the board) will either avoid the conflict or appropriately scrutinize the transaction to ensure it is in the best interests of mercyone. Interested persons are required to recuse themselves from discussion and voting on matters involving a conflict of interest. The policy further addresses the proper documentation of the proceedings and potential disciplinary and corrective action for violations of the policy. The policy is available to the public upon request.”
