“All employees are required to submit a conflict of interest declaration of outside employment upon hire, annually thereafter, or at such time during the course of employment when the employee enters a business, clinical, or personal relationship that may appear to be a conflict or is in fact a conflict of interest. Senior Management will review each conflict of interest disclosure form to determine whether a potential or actual conflict of interest exists. If the determination is made that a conflict of interest does exist, then appropriate measures are taken to rectify the conflict. Board members and Senior Management submit an annual conflict of interest disclosure questionnaire to disclose existing or potential conflicts that may relate to future decision making. When an actual conflict involving a Board member is identified, the director will abstain from voting and not use his/her personal influence on the matter. Situations involving Senior Management may be handled through the Human Resources process or considered by the Board of Directors. Relationships with other providers, educational institutions, manufacturers and payors are reviewed to determine whether conflicts of interest exist. Any conflicts are addressed when they arise. Policies designed to identify and prevent potential conflicts of interest pertaining to contractual business relationships are addressed through the policy on fair business practices.”
