Faculty Disclosure of Relevant Financial Relationships
Many faculty members have financial relationships with ineligible companies. An ineligible company is
defined as those companies whose primary business is producing, marketing, selling, re-selling, or distributing healthcare products used by or on patients. To ensure that these relationships do not influence our accredited educational activity, ASES requires all faculty members to disclose all relevant financial relationships with any ineligible company(ies) within the past 24 months. Disclosure includes documentation of the name of the ineligible company and the nature of the relationship. ASES subsequently identifies relevant financial relationships and mitigates such relationships prior to the individual assuming their role. All conflicts of interest potentially impacting educational content have been resolved prior to this course. Disclosure of identified financial relationships is disclosed to all learners prior to engaging in this activity.
All relevant financial relationships have been mitigated.
