If the Committee determines that a staff member has a conflict, the staff member will be contacted and a management plan developed.
The management plan will document steps being taken to prevent the outside interest from inappropriately influencing decision-making or impacting UAMS responsibilities.
If the conflict cannot be managed, the Committee may request divestment of the interest.
