Guidelines on gifts to physicians from industry: an update
Food Drug Law J. 1992; 47:(4):445-58
Abstract:
In 1990, the Council on Ethical and Judicial Affairs issued its six guidelines on gifts to physicians from industry. Since then, it has received numerous requests for interpretations of the guidelines. Many questions can be answered by referring to the full report that was presented to the AMA’s House of Delegates. The report provides the reasoning behind the guidelines. In addition, the Council issued a number of interpretations in response to representative questions in 1991. This article includes the text of the full report, the six guidelines, and the representative questions and interpretations.
