Disclosure standards.(For the record)(Brief article)
The medical community must develop uniform disclosure standards for financial dealings with industry and the United States government should create a mandatory national reporting program requiring industry to make public all payments to physicians, researchers, universities, health institutions, advocacy groups or other health entities, recommends a blue-ribbon US Institute of Medicine committee on conflict of interest in medical research, education and practice.
"The public needs to be able to trust that physicians' decisions are not inappropriately influenced by their financial relationships with industry," the committee stated in its report, Conflict of Interest in Medical Research, Education, and Practice, while urging physicians, researchers, academic medical centres, professional societies, patient advocacy groups, governments, regulatory bodies and medical journals to standardize "the content, format, and procedures for disclosing financial relationships physicians and researchers have with industry" (www.iom.edu).
