The Disclosure of Relevant Financial Relationships
*
Participant disclosure regarding the production of accredited content.
Because Pinnacle is responsible for upholding the Standards for Integrity and Independence in Accredited Continuing Education, please disclose all financial relationships that you have had with ineligible companies in the 24 months prior to this education’s start date. For each relationship, enter the name of the ineligible company and the nature of the financial relationship(s).
There is no minimum financial threshold; we ask you to disclose all financial relationships, regardless of the amount, with ineligible companies. You should disclose all financial relationships regardless of the potential relevance to the educational activity you are involved in.
Examples of financial relationships include employee, researcher, consultant, advisor, speaker, independent contractor (including contracted research), royalties or patent beneficiary, executive role, and ownership interest. Individual stocks and stock options should be disclosed; diversified mutual funds do not need to be disclosed. Research funding from ineligible companies should be disclosed by the principal or named investigator even if that individual’s institution receives the research grant and manages the funds.
An ineligible company is any entity whose primary business is producing, marketing, selling, re-selling, or distributing healthcare products used by or on patients.
