“The conflict of interest policy applies to all board members and officers of pysc. The board of directors is responsible for overseeing this policy. If a potential conflict arises the board member or officer is required to disclose such item to the board members without a potential conflict.

Procedures for addressing a conflict of interest are explicitly spelled out in the conflict of interest policy. In addition to self-reporting, the collaborative requires board members and officers to complete an annual disclosure statements, and conducts period reviews of pysc activities, including but not limited to compensation, consulting and service agreements to ensure all are the result of arm's length bargaining.”
