As a CME-accredited institution, Riverside Methodist Hospital must be in compliance with the ACCME
Standards for Commercial Support. Therefore, any faculty making a presentation at a designated CME
activity must disclose any financial interest or relationship they have with the manufacturers of any
commercial products, as well as any investigational/unapproved use of a commercial product, that may
be discussed in the educational presentation.

is inherently improper or that it would prevent the speaker from making a balanced presentation.
However, we are required to disclose this information to all participants at any designated CME activity
