Overview Organizational Issues Scope of Compliance Efforts Legal Standards Operations Responsibilities Structure and Resources Pivotal Issues Foundational Elements Substantive Areas Understanding the Landscape & Selling Compliance Implementation Observing Trends in Enforcement Sample Tools

Organizational Issues Endorsement and Ownership by Top Executives and Executive Committees Scope Legal standards Operations Responsibilities Structure and Resources

Scope: Legal Standards Regulation of products Fraud and corruption Antitrust and competition Data privacy Environmental Other

Scope: Operations Research and development Manufacturing and distribution Sales and marketing Finance/accounting Human resources and “people” Corporate security Physical assets

Scope: Responsibilities Policies, standard operating procedures (SOPs) Education and training Communications and “ethics” hotlines Auditing and corrective action plans Investigations Reporting to management Implementation of business actions on compliance issues Design, implementation and testing Coordination and feedback

Structure and Resources Reporting (senior executive vs. stand-alone) Compliance team Geographical vs. business focus EMEA, ASIA/PACIFIC, CANADA/LATIN AMERICA PHARMACEUTICALS, MEDICAL DEVICES, CONSUMER Budget and headcount Support liaisons and partnerships Internal audit and corporate security Outside experts and easily deployable resources Compliance counsel Resources and priorities outside the compliance function Organizational complexities, e.g., matrix, functional versus geographical, versus activity based Functional silos

Organizing and Operating a Global Compliance Program Remit of, and interaction with, other assurance functions: Legal Internal audit GXP Security Differences in legal practice, legal privilege and duties of lawyers

Broad Issues: Foundational Elements Surveying existing standards and seeking legal advice Laws United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) & "red flags" Other Outside United States: Regional level (e.g., EU) and country-specific Medicines regulatory agencies Anti-corruption Anti-unfair competition Privacy Other (e.g., tax)

Broad Issues: Foundational Elements Surveying existing standards and seeking legal advice Local Codes Regional (e.g., EFPIA) – Mandatory/Guidance Country-specific – Mandatory/Guidance

Broad Issues: Foundational Elements Facilitating employee communications and reporting Hotline services in applicable languages Using Sarbanes-Oxley channels Understanding attitudes towards reporting and management hierarchy Ensuring consistency in how the company approaches similar topics and practices across geographies and business units

Substantive Issues Gaining an understanding: Gift and hospitality practices Switzerland’s 300 SFR limit China’s gold-plated white lotus moon cakes Corporate giving and charitable contributions Japan’s “shogaku” and “tokubetsu” kifuki Charitable donations recipients sponsors Sponsorship (stand-alone education) and “CME” Congresses and satellite symposia Government partnerships

Substantive Issues Gaining an understanding: Equipment grants to under-funded hospitals Outcome and observational studies, and non-registrational trials Pricing negotiations Tender process Payment to physicians for fee-for-service activities Made by sales representatives In cash Role of sales and marketing in education, clinical trials, grants/donations, etc.

Substantive Issues Gaining an understanding: “Government official” Central and provincial governments Hospital management and employees/staff DOJ/SEC’s views based on FCPA vs. country standards Promotional expenditures (e.g., “books and records”) Government “visits” and “doing business” in the country Physician-owned businesses and physician-led foundations Agents and Distributors Activities in discharge of obligations Occupational fraud

Understanding the Landscape Conducting assessments Legal obligations profile Current state assessment Identify existing processes (including practices) Identify controls in place Identify gaps and opportunities for improvements Getting a sense for local “culture” and issues The experience of the “assessment” – Mutual benefits

“Selling Compliance” Support of Leadership Obtaining buy-in from business leaders (e.g., regional executives, country managers) Message from the top (headquarters) Instilling importance despite absence of an environment comparable to the US’s Respect for autonomy and country “differences” Finding strong leaders Producing regional or country-specific gap analyses Involving local management in analyzing the strategic value vs. control relationship

Endorsement and ownership by top executives and executive committees Global Compliance Officer Clear authority, strong remit and personal standing Support from Board and audit committee Regular updates to and buy-in from audit committee

Selling compliance Risk-based approach Where to set the bar Value-added bureaucracy Need to seek consistency and simplicity across functions and geographies Strong leadership Respect for autonomy and country “differences”

Selling compliance Behaviours versus rules Corporate responsibility and reputation management Protecting licence to operate Compliance processes as improvements to good business controls and to assist with assurance Corporate benefit

Selling Compliance Exporting best practices and lessons based on US experience – sensitively, prudently Instilling importance and relevance despite absence of an environment comparable to the US’s What are the equivalent anti-bribery/anti-corruption laws? The US Foreign Corrupt Practices Act UK and Swedish Anti-Bribery Laws Equivalent laws in all Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development countries Industry Codes, e.g. WHO Criteria, IFPMA Code, EFPIA Code, ABPI Code

Implementation Rolling Out a Global Compliance Initiative Organizing the effort Identify key players/influencers Provide guidance or mandates (written charters) Develop a roll out plan and timeline Areas to cover Policies and SOPs Training Communication and reporting Auditing schedule Investigative protocol

Implementation Rolling Out an Global Compliance Initiative Other strategies Sharing best practices Exporting (prudently) best practices and lessons based on US experience Compliance councils Shared databases Raising awareness Self-assessments based on common baseline standards

Requiring third parties to meet certain standards What exactly are those standards? How do we satisfy ourselves that they are met? Due diligence Contractual reps and warranties Practical and relationship issues Ongoing monitoring of 3rd parties Other

Observing Trends in Enforcement Other Developments Revised Code of Conduct of European Federation of Pharmaceutical Industries and Associations (EFPIA) Eucomed code (resembling AdvaMed Code) British Parliament’s Select Health Committee’s inquiry Adjudications by Association of British Pharmaceutical Industry’s Prescription Medicine Code of Practice Authority (PMCPA) Italy’s Farmindustria Code and audits France’s Conseil de l’Ordre des Médecins Enhanced powers for the European Medicines Agency Creation of the European Healthcare Fraud and Corruption Office (10/05) Other Sources Transparency International and OECD US State Department's "Investment Climate Statement" SEC/DOJ websites Competitor complaints

Defining bribery / corruption The company, its employees and those who act on its behalf must not offer or pay bribes. The company must not offer or give money or anything else of value either as an improper inducement to make, or as an improper reward for making, any decision favorable to the interests of the company. This includes providing improper benefits of any kind to government officials and other healthcare professionals and organizations, patients or suppliers, charities and patient groups, companies or individuals.

Persons and Entities within Scope Government Officials Healthcare Professionals Healthcare Organizations Persons affiliated with Healthcare Organizations Anyone

Healthcare Professionals and Organizations Any persons who or which may prescribe, administer, recommend, purchase, pay for, reimburse, authorize, approve or supply a medicine or medical device. Includes: any members of the medical, dental, pharmacy or nursing professions, or relevant associated administrative staff; and/or hospitals and other care organizations, health insurers (including managed care organizations), pharmacies, and formulary or benefit administrators, and relevant staff at such entities.

Generally accepted expenditures Modest and customary meals, gifts and activities are acceptable, provided they comply with any local laws and applicable codes and policies and not intended to influence Facilitating payments Fair market value payments for legitimate services required BUT: If only one purpose is improper, bribery is implicated

Core activities that can implicate anti-bribery laws Engaging the services of HCPs Post-marketing studies and other clinical studies Sponsoring HCPs to attend meetings and events Gifts and entertainment Visits to Company facilities and other travel Charitable and community support contributions Sponsorship and grants Political contributions Facilitating payments Actions by agents, consultants, joint-venture partners, distributors and other third party representatives

Core Activities: Detailed Analysis For each core activity engage in a through review of policy and internal controls Review the process by which each activity is reviewed/approved Develop a mechanism to determine that each activity reviewed meets internal standards Review mechanism for controls and decision-making Review recordkeeping and ongoing review practices for each activity

FCPA Due Diligence Potential gaps in companies’ existing protections around relationships with third parties, incl. HCPs, suppliers and distributors Effective due diligence processes in place, appropriate to the size and scope of the risk, to assess potential contracting partners Should be an integral part of ongoing supplier management efforts across the organization

What might due diligence look like? Identify and categorize third parties/vendor types Develop criteria to evaluate risk by vendor type and assign to tiers Develop due diligence procedures related to tiers of risk Assess as-is processes and procedures to determine gaps between existing and proposed due diligence requirements Develop a triage process to review results of due diligence Develop system to maintain due diligence results Develop monitoring protocols for compliance with enhanced due diligence processes (e.g. vendor spend analyses)
