MCO Congrès and Compliance

Today, the concept of Compliance (conformity of the interactions between Industry and Healthcare Professionals) refers to the respect of all the laws and applicable rules, as well as codes of conduct and the standards of “good practices”, that they are internal or external to an active company in a defined market.

There’s also an Ethical dimension in the notion of Compliance, consisted in social and moral values going beyond the strictly legal standards.

The organization of a scientific event (Congress) in the Medical field asks for a strong knowledge of rules and practices at European but also World level to be able to offer an event in compliance with rules and practices of good behaviour. 

The guideline of the compliance articulates on 4 axes:

	Separation The interaction between Industry and Heakthcare Professionals must not be ill-advisedly used to influence Healthacare professionals to use or recommend a product or a range of products.
	Transparency The interaction between Industry and Healthcare Professionals must be transparent and conform to the National and Local Laws, Rules and professional Codes of Conduct.
	Equivalence When a Healthcare Professional is undertaken to exercise a performance for Industry, the poured remuneration must be reasonable and represent a just market value for the requested performance.
	Documentation For any interaction between Industry and Healthcare Professional, a writtten contract must be signed by both parties, explaining the object of this interaction, the requested performance, the financial coverages and methods of reimbursement of exepnses for a participation to a scientific event.
