Annual Conflict of Interest Disclosure Statement
The following resources maybe helpful to you in completing your form.
The attached document provides a complete description of what you will be asked to disclose on the form. This will be particularly helpful if this is the first time you are completing the form.
As you may be aware, there is now a searchable publicly-available database listing payments from companies to physicians, which was established by the federal government under the “Sunshine Reporting Law” that went into effect last year. See the Open Payments web page for more information. You may find this database useful in helping you double check your disclosures. The Office for Interactions with Industry will also be using information from this site (as well as from the similar Mass. Dept of Public Health web site) as a resource for cross-checking information reported on the Partners forms.
The Office for Interactions with Industry’s web site (accessible only from within the Partners network) contains detailed information and resources about the Disclosure process, links to policies and other resources for helping you navigate Partners requirements regarding interactions with industry.
If you have questions about the disclosure process once you access the online form, please contact your department delegate, your local Compliance Officer, or the OII at [email protected].
