Clinical Trials and the Sunshine Act: The Effect on the Clinical Research Industry
Upcoming Courses
Course Description
In an effort to increase transparency, highlight potential conflicts of interest, and ultimately decrease healthcare costs, one element of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) – the Sunshine Act – requires disclosure of payments or transfer of value to physicians. These physicians can also be involved in clinical research as Investigators, in which case additional information is required to be reported. Released in February 2013, the final rule requires applicable manufacturers of covered drugs, devices, and biological supplies to gather and report information to be listed on the public website. This web seminar will address the requirements for reporting of information derived from clinical research as well as exceptions for reporting.
