   I have disclosed to the UNMC CCE and UNMC CON CNE all relevant financial relationships, and I will disclose the information to learners verbally (for live activities) and in print.

    The content and/or presentation of the information with which I am involved will promote quality or improvements in healthcare and will not promote a specific proprietary business interest of a commercial interest. Content for this activity, including any presentation of therapeutic options, will be well-balanced, evidence-based, and unbiased.

    I understand that the UNMC CCE and/or UNMC CON CNE may need to review my presentation and/or content prior to the activity. Hence, I will provide educational content and resources in advance as requested.

   If I am presenting at a live event, I understand that a CME monitor will be attending the event to ensure that my presentation is educational, and not promotional in nature.

   If I am providing recommendations involving clinical medicine, these will be based on evidence that is accepted within the profession of medicine as adequate justification for their indications and contraindications in the care of patients. All scientific research referred to, reported, or used in CME in support of justification of a patient care recommendation will conform to the generally accepted standards of experimental design, data collection, and analysis.

   If I am discussing specific health care products or services, I will use generic names to the extent possible. If I need to use trade names, I will use trade names from several companies when available, and not just trade names from any single company.

   If I am discussing any product use that is off-label, I will disclose during the presentation that the use or indication in question is not currently approved by the FDA for labeling or advertising.

   If I have been trained or utilized by a commercial entity or its agent as a speaker (e.g., speaker’s bureau) for any commercial interest, the promotional aspects of that presentation will not be included in any way with this activity.

   If I am presenting research funded by a commercial company, the information presented will be based on generally accepted scientific principles and methods, and will not promote the commercial interest of the funding company.

   I agree to comply with the requirements to protect health information under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA).
