| Form 990, Part VI, Line 12c Conflict of interest policy |
AN ACTUAL, POTENTIAL, OR PERCEIVED CONFLICT OF INTEREST OCCURS IN THOSE CIRCUMSTANCES WHERE AN EMPLOYEE'S JUDGEMENT COULD BE AFFECTED BECAUSE THE EMPLOYEE HAS A PERSONAL INTEREST, OTHER THAN THE RECEIPT OF COMPENSATION FROM BAPTIST HEALTH SOUTH FLORIDA, INC. AND ITS AFFILIATES ("BHSF"), IN THE OUTCOME OF A DECISION OVER WHICH THE EMPLOYEE HAS CONTROL OR INFLUENCE. FOR THE PURPOSES OF THIS POLICY, IT IS PRESUMED THAT MANAGERS HAVE CONTROL OR INFLUENCE OVER ANY DECISION AFFECTING A MATTER FOR WHICH A MANAGER HAS RESPONSIBILITY. A PERSONAL INTEREST EXISTS WHEN AN EMPLOYEE OR A MEMBER OF HIS OR HER FAMILY STANDS TO DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY OBTAIN FINANCIAL GAIN AS A RESULT OF A DECISION. THIS POLICY IS INTENDED FOR ALL EMPLOYEES TO UNDERSTAND, IDENTIFY, MANAGE, AND APPROPRIATELY DISCLOSE THOSE TRANSACTIONS, WHICH COULD RESULT IN AN ACTUAL, POTENTIAL, OR PERCEIVED CONFLICT OF INTEREST. IN ACCORDANCE WITH OUR CODE OF ETHICS, HIGH ETHICAL STANDARDS MUST BE OBSERVED IN THE NEGOTIATION AND EXECUTION OF ALL BUSINESS ACTIVITIES CONDUCTED AT, BY OR WITH BAPTIST HEALTH. ANY DECISIONS MADE BY BAPTIST HEALTH EMPLOYEES MUST BE MADE IN COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAWS AND REGULATIONS, WITH THE BEST ORGANIZATIONAL INTERESTS OF BAPTIST HEALTH AS THE HIGHEST PRIORITY AND WITHOUT REGARD TO THE PERSONAL GAIN OR INTEREST OF ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY. LIKEWISE, THE APPEARANCE OF ANY SUCH IMPROPER INFLUENCE ON ANY DECISIONS SHOULD BE CONSCIOUSLY AVOIDED. EMPLOYEES SHOULD ALSO ADHERE TO POLICY 828 WHICH PROHIBITS VENDOR SPONSORED TRAVEL, POLICY 829 WHICH LIMITS ACCEPTANCE OF PERSONAL HONORARIUMS, AND POLICY 831 WHICH PROVIDES LIMITATIONS AND GUIDELINES ON PHILANTHROPIC SOLICITATION OF VENDORS. A POTENTIAL OR PERCEIVED CONFLICT OF INTEREST MAY EXIST IRRESPECTIVE OF THE INTENT OF THE EMPLOYEE. BOARD CONFLICT OF INTEREST Baptist Health has a strong and robust Conflict of Interest policy. The policy is meant to ensure that each member of the Board of Trustees governs the affairs of Baptist Health and its affiliates with honesty and integrity and makes decisions for the benefit of Baptist Health. Board of Trustee members may not be employed by Baptist Health, nor engaged to provide services to Baptist Health or any of its affiliates in exchange for cash compensation. Conflict free decision making extends beyond the Board members to include transactions that might benefit (I) the private interest of a member or his or her family (II) an organization controlled by a member of his or her family or (III) an organization in which a member or his or her family has a material interest. Since the appearance of a conflict of interest may be as damaging to Baptist Health's reputation as actually permitting a conflict to exist, each voting Board member of Baptist Health and its affiliates has a continuing obligation to disclose any potential conflicts. This continuing obligation is supplemented by an annual certification that the Board member is free from actual or potential conflicts of interest. The annual certification is reviewed by the Vice President of Audit and Compliance and the Chief Compliance Officer who reports directly to the Board. Potential conflicts are further reviewed by the Board's Ethics Committee. If a conflict does exist, the conflicted Board member may be required to (I) resign from the Board (II) eliminate the relationship, which gives rise to the conflict or (III) recuse himself or herself from all discussions, votes or actions with regard to the matter creating the actual or potential conflict of interest. CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY COMPLIANCE ONE OF BAPTIST HEALTH'S GREATEST ASSETS IS THE INTEGRITY OF ITS VOLUNTEER BOARD MEMBERS. ONE WAY TO ASSURE INTEGRITY IS THE ORGANIZATION'S COMMITMENT TO A STRINGENT CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY FOR THEIR GOVERNING BOARDS AND MANAGEMENT. AS A PART OF A ROBUST CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY, BOARD MEMBERS MUST ANNUALLY COMPLETE A CONFLICT OF INTEREST DECLARATION FORM. THE AUDIT AND COMPLIANCE DEPARTMENT MONITOR TO ENSURE ALL VOTING MEMBERS SUBMIT THE DECLARATION FORM AND PERFORM NECESSARY RESEARCH TO UNDERSTAND IF A POTENTIAL CONFLICT EXISTS. ALL DISCLOSURES AND THE RELATED RESEARCH ARE SUMMARIZED FOR THE ETHICS COMMITTEE OF THE BAPTIST HEALTH SOUTH FLORIDA, INC. BOARD OF TRUSTEES. ANY DISCLOSURES THAT MAY RESULT IN THE APPEARANCE OF A CONFLICT ARE ADDRESSED BY THE COMMITTEE FOR ITS CONSIDERATION AND RESOLUTION. |
