Henry Ford Health System's Compliance Management Solution
An important role of the Henry Ford Health System (HFHS) Compliance Office is to implement effective conflict of interest (COI) policies and procedures for staff that enter into external relationships. For several years, the office used a “homegrown” system which was not specifically designed to manage COI activities, causing several operational deficiencies that made its continued use impractical. They needed a sophisticated and comprehensive tool for streamlining COI process that would also be simple to learn and use. So it was important for the organization to partner with a vendor that offered a proven solution and track records.
