Declaration of California Compliance Law
A. Compliance
NOTICE: this information is provided pursuant to the requirements of Cal. Health & Safety Code § 119402 (S.B. 1765), which requires certain pharmaceutical and medical device companies doing business in California to make available their program for compliance (the “Compliance Program”) with applicable federal and state laws and industry standards regulating the marketing and promotion of their products, as well as annual written declaration of compliance with the Compliance Program.
B. Introduction
OsteoMed LLC is committed to maintaining the highest levels of professional and ethical standards in the conduct of its business affairs. The Company’s reputation depends on its employees’ honesty, integrity and unquestionable ethical standards. Accordingly, the Company has established a robust corporate-wide Compliance Program to inform and guide the behavior and actions of its employees, enabling them to perform their assigned tasks effectively, lawfully and ethically. “Compliance” for OsteoMed means adherence to all applicable laws, regulations and Company policies relating to standards of conduct that may affect the Company’s business operations or public image in light of applicable government and industry standards as well as legal and business trends and public issues. Additionally, OsteoMed LLC recognizes that adherence to these standards can be furthered through a compliance program that is informed by the Compliance Program Guidance for Pharmaceutical Manufacturers, published by the Office of Inspector General of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (the “OIG Guide”). The OIG Guide advises that effective compliance programs are comprised of seven elements. As described below, these elements form the basis of OsteoMed’s program for compliance with the standards regulating the marketing and promotion of its products.
C. Overview of Compliance Program
1. Implementation of Written Policies and Procedures: OsteoMed LLC has written policies to assure substantial compliance with the applicable laws, regulations and standards governing the marketing and promotion of our products. Among these standards are recognized industry codes of conduct including the AdvaMed Code of Ethics for Interactions with Health Care Professionals, published by Advanced Medical Technology Association (“AdvaMed”). The AdvaMed Code was developed to provide guidance specifically to the medical device industry. The AdvaMed Code is the equivalent to the voluntary Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America Code on Interactions with Health Care Professionals, which was designed to provide guidance to the pharmaceutical industry. These policies include:
1.1. Policy on Educational Grants and Research Grants: OsteoMed LLC may provide grants for specific educational purposes that benefit patients and customers. These may include, but are not limited to, continuing medical and paraprofessional education programs, residency and fellowships provided to teaching institutions and similar organizations with a demonstrated commitment to scientific and technical education, and programs operations by organizations that provide high-quality, nationally-recognized patient education. Funding of educational programs will generally be provided only to organizations, institutions or professional societies and not to individual practitioners.
Research grants to support customer-initiated research may be provided for programs involving research in areas of legitimate interest to the Company. All requests are subject to scientific review prior to funding approval.
1.2. Policy on Charitable Contributions and Patient Assistance: OsteoMed LLC will consider charitable contributions and requests for patient assistance in the areas of children’s health, healthcare education, access to healthcare and community responsibility, consistent with OsteoMed LLC policies.
1.3. Policy on Travel Expense Reimbursement for CME, Promotional or Product Training Meetings: OsteoMed LLC will not, with very limited exceptions that are in accordance with nationally recognized standards, reimburse for travel and lodging expenses of attendees at promotional and educational programs.
OsteoMed LLC may reimburse attendees for their reasonable travel and lodging expenses associated with attendance at product training meetings. Product training meetings will be conducted in locations conducive to the exchange of information such as educational or conference settings. Where face-to-face or hands-on customer training is reasonably necessary for the safe and effective use of OsteoMed products, OsteoMed LLC may provide training at company facilities, at independent teaching centers such as medical institutions, or in other appropriate clinical settings.
1.4. Policy on Business Meals: OsteoMed LLC may occasionally offer a modest meal, consistent with the standards of the AdvaMed Code, as part of an educational presentation or a business discussion. Venues that feature entertainment or recreation, and attendance by spouses or guests, are not permitted. Modesty is to be judged by local standards, but in general costs of meals with customers should not exceed $100 per attendee.
1.5. Policy on the Provision of Educational and Practice-Related Items: On occasion, OsteoMed LLC representatives may provide items designed primarily for the education of patients or healthcare professionals (for example, an anatomical model or medical text) if the items are not of substantial value, do not have value to healthcare professionals outside of his or her professional responsibilities, and are infrequent. Dollar limits shall be consistent with the AdvaMed Code.
Promotional items such as coffee cups, pens, and notepads, and practice-related items that are not educational are not permitted under OsteoMed LLC policy.
1.6. Total Annual Dollar Limit for Meals, for Educational or Practice-Related Items (and Expense Reimbursement for Product Training Meetings): OsteoMed has established an annual limit of $1500 for meals and educational items as the aggregate value of the items or activities that may be provided to California healthcare professionals pursuant to the requirements of Cal. Health & Safety Code § 119402 (S.B. 1765).
1.7. Policy Prohibiting Entertainment: It is the policy of OsteoMed LLC not to provide entertainment (e.g., sporting events, golf outings, concerts, hunting, etc.) to customers.
2. Designation of a Compliance Officer and Compliance Committee: OsteoMed LLC has appointed a healthcare Chief Compliance Officer. The Chief Compliance Officer has been empowered with appropriate authority to exercise independent judgment and has free and unencumbered access to the Senior Management team and, in particular, the Chief Executive Officer.
OsteoMed LLC has appointed a healthcare Compliance Committee. The Committee is comprised of the company’s healthcare Chief Compliance Officer and certain members of the Company’s Senior Management team, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer. The Compliance Committee is the Compliance leadership team at OsteoMed.
3. Effective Training and Education: OsteoMed LLC has an onboarding and annual healthcare compliance training process that includes education and annual certification of appropriate employees. The training covers applicable guidelines governing our Compliance Program. Employees are also trained on the consequences of failure to comply with the requirements of the Company’s Compliance Program. As-needed additional training is also available.
4. Development of Effective Lines of Communication: OsteoMed LLC encourages open and candid discussion between management and employees regarding any compliance concerns. OsteoMed LLC employees are encouraged to report their concerns to their supervisor and/or manager, to the Human Resources Department, to the company’s Chief Compliance Officer, or to the Company’s Compliance Hotline number, 1-800-456-7779.
5. Internal Monitoring and Auditing: OsteoMed LLC self-assesses and periodically audits its compliance with its policies and procedures.
6. Enforcement of Standards Through Well-Publicized Disciplinary Guidelines: OsteoMed LLC will take disciplinary actions in response to violation of the company’s compliance policies or procedures. OsteoMed LLC will conduct a fair and diligent investigation of matters that are brought to the Company’s attention in order to ensure the consistent application of the Company’s standards.
7. Prompt Response to Detected Problems and Undertaking of Corrective Action: OsteoMed LLC requires a prompt and diligent response to potential violations of the Company’s Compliance Program, including its standards regulating the marketing and promotion of our products. Actions in response to detected problems may include improving policies, procedures, training, communication and monitoring or may require disciplinary action to prevent future violations.
For a copy of this Compliance Program, please call our Compliance Hotline number, 1-800-456-7779. Provide your name, mailing address and request that a copy of the OsteoMed LLC Compliance Program be sent to you.
D. Declaration for California Compliance Law
As part of OsteoMed LLC’s ongoing efforts in the area of compliance, we have developed a comprehensive Compliance Program that is designed to comply with applicable federal and state laws and industry standards relating to the marketing and promotion of our products. To our knowledge as of the date of this declaration, OsteoMed LLC is in compliance with our comprehensive Compliance Program, as described herein, and with California Health & Safety Code §§ 119400-119402.
