Abstract
Knowledge is lacking among Otolaryngologist–Head and Neck Surgeons (ORL-HNS) regarding basic ethical situations in corporate-provider relationships. A pilot educational program demonstrates the need and potential for improvement by structured intervention. “At risk” areas specifically identified regard acceptable gifts, and payments for meetings and travel. Recommendations are made to educate otolaryngologists in standards for compliant behavior in corporate-physician relationships. Further work to formalize and tailor education to the needs of ORL-HNS is warranted, including continued education through the American Academy of Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery Foundation (AAO-HNSF). A checklist is provided here as a first step in enabling more compliant behavior as surgeons engage in corporate relationships.
