Disclosure of Relationships Form

Disclosure of Relationships Form

As an accredited provider of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME), Macon & Joan Brock Virginia Health Science requires disclosure of financial relationships with ineligible companies from any individual in control of the educational content. This includes all planners and speakers. All financial disclosures must be mitigated prior to the activity.

Healthcare professionals serve as the trusted authorities when advising patients and must protect the learning environment from industry bias to ensure they remain true to their ethical commitments. By identifying and mitigating relevant financial relationships, we work together to create a protected space to learn, teach, and engage in discussion free from influence from organizations that may have an incentive to insert commercial bias into education.

The ACCME Standards for Integrity and Independence require that we disqualify individuals who refuse to provide this information from involvement in the planning and implementation of accredited continuing education.
