Compliance Program Manual
The University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey (UMDNJ) is proud of its
long tradition of ethical and responsible conduct. Each employee of UMDNJ is
expected to adhere to this high standard whenever he or she acts on behalf of
UMDNJ, whether in dealings with other employees, with patients and their families,
with vendors, with government regulators or with the general public.
Violations
of legal or ethical requirements jeopardize the welfare of UMDNJ, its employees
and patients, and the communities it serves.
The Compliance Program is intended
to define and govern the conduct expected of employees, to provide guidance on
how to resolve questions regarding legal and ethical issues, and to establish
a mechanism for the reporting of possible violations of law or ethical practices
within UMDNJ.
