POLICIES
The Conflicts of Interest policy applies to any person in a position to exercise influence in connection with any contract, transaction or arrangement presented to the Board of Directors or a Board committee for approval (interested person). This includes, but is not limited to, any director, officer, or member of a committee with board-designated powers. Each interested person has the obligation to annually submit a completed conflicts of interest questionnaire and has a continuing obligation to disclose any potential conflict of interest promptly. Each interested person signs annually an acknowledgement that states that the interested person has received, read and understands the conflict of interest policy, agrees to comply with the policy; understands that the policy applies to the board of directors and committees; understands that Children's Physicians is a not-for-profit organization that must engage primarily in exempt activities; agrees to report to the compliance Officer any change to matters previously disclosed on the Conflicts of Interest Questionnaire; states that the information provided in the conflicts of interest questionnaire is true and accurate to the best of his/her knowledge and belief. The governance committee reviews each completed conflicts of interest questionnaire to determine if any further investigation of potential conflicts is necessary. When a potential conflict is voluntarily identified by an interested person or through disclosure by another person, the remaining board/committee members review the matter and determine whether a conflict of interest exists. Only disinterested board/committee members may vote to determine whether a conflict exists. The interested person in question cannot be present during the vote. If a conflict of interest exists, the disinterested board/committee members determine whether a more advantageous contract, transaction or arrangement should be obtained. When considering whether to enter into the proposed contract, transaction, or arrangement, only disinterested board/committee members can vote to determine if it is in the best interest of Children's Physicians and for Children's Physicians own benefit. The interested person may be required to leave the room when the matter is discussed and is required to leave the room when the matter is voted on. Only disinterested board/committee members may vote on the matter. Failure to comply with the conflict of interest policy may result in removal from the board.
