AAOS, NASS is now targeted by Senator Charles Grassley

 

Looks like Senator Charles Grassley of Iowa is moving up the food chain.

Specifically, the Senator asked for the following:

  • Policies for accepting industry funding and whether or not companies are allowed to place restrictions or provide guidance on how funding will be spent
  • Explanations of all restrictions and/or guidance for each transfer of value from industry
  • Policies the organizations plan to adopt to ensure transparency of funding in order to provide a greater public trust in the independence of the organization
  • Policies on disclosure of outside income by top executives and board members
  • Disclosures of outside income filed with the organizations by its top executives and board members
