DISCLOSURE POLICY
It is the policy of the Lehigh Carbon Community College COTA Conference Committee that all presenters
and speakers must disclose any financial interests or other relationships (i.e., manufacturers, vendors, grant
sources, research support, consultant relationships, honoraria, etc) regarding products, services or outcomes
that may be discussed in the educational presentation.
The COTA Conference does not imply that such financial or other interests or relationships would prevent
the speaker from making a presentation. However, it is imperative that such financial interests or
relationships be identified by the speaker so that participants of the educational program may have these facts
fully disclosed prior to the presentation, and may form their own judgments about the presentation.
The commercial support standards require that presentations give a balanced view of therapeutic options,
preferably using generic names. If it is necessary to use a trade name, then please use those of several
companies. Further, should your presentation include discussion of any unlabeled or investigational use of
a commercial product, you are required to disclose this to the participants.
In keeping with this policy, the speaker is required to sign the following disclosure statement.
FULL DISCLOSURE STATEMENT: Please sign A OR B, whichever is applicable.
