These COIs include affiliations, ownership interests, investment interests, intellectual property interests, business or employment relationships, scientific studies or trials, presentations or publications, with (1) any entity researching and developing, producing, marketing, selling, re-selling or distributing health care products used by or on patients; (2) healthcare publications; or (3) other medical associations. All disclosures for the past 24 months must be provided.
