VHA ISSUES FINAL DIRECTIVE ON
PHARMACEUTICAL SALES CONTACTS
On October 21, VHA issued
Directive 2003-060, Business Relationships Between VHA Staff and
Pharmaceutical Industry Representatives.
NPCs should be aware of this new guidance, particularly those
sections that are directly relevant to activities commonly supported by
NPCs. For example, Section
4(c) specifically mentions the NPCs as possible recipients of monetary
contributions from pharmaceutical companies in support of research or
training.
