Disclosure Requirements

Explanation
The Pancreatobiliary Pathology Society has implemented a process where everyone who is in a position to control the educational content must disclose to us all relevant financial relationships with any commercial interest and any conflicts of interest prior to the educational activity. Case content will be reviewed by the education committee members; a determination will be made to manage the conflict with safeguards against any potential bias. This is not intended to prevent participation unless the conflict of interest is determined to be unresolvable. Refusal to disclose means that you relinquish your ability to participate in the educational activity. Circumstances create a conflict of interest when an individual has an opportunity to affect educational content about products or services of a commercial interest with which he/she has a financial relationship.
Will your Case Study include discussion of any commercial products or services?
I acknowledge that it is my responsibility to disclose to the audience any product mentioned in my presentation that is not labeled for the use under discussion or is still under investigation.
Do you or your spouse/partner have a financial interest/arrangement or affiliation with the manufacturer(s) of any of the products or provider(s) of any services you intend to discuss?

Conflict of Interest Disclosure - If applicable

Nature of Financial Relationship (include all that apply) Relevant to the Content of the Educational Activities that You Are Developing.
Include:
1. Name of Commercial Interest?
2. What was received?
3. For what role?
Please list the names of any entities that produce, market, re-sell, or distribute health care goods or services consumed by, or used on, patients, related to the content of your presentation (except for non-profit or government organizations and non-health care related companies), with which you or your spouse/partner have, or had, a relevant financial relationship within the past 12 months. Please describe what you or your spouse/partner received (ex: salary, honorarium, etc.), but not the amount, and describe your role.
