What You Should Know About Gifts to Physicians From Industry

Gift giving from the pharmaceutical, device and medical equipment industries to physicians has long been a customary practice. But when gift giving is not practiced within established ethical boundaries, the perception of conflict of interest is raised. All physicians and physicians in training should adhere to the AMA Code of Medical Ethics, Opinion 8.061, “Gifts to Physicians from Industry” which can be found under the AMA Code of Medical Ethics at https://code-medical-ethics.ama-assn.org/ethics-opinions/gifts-physicians-industry.

Johns Hopkins faculty, staff, employees, students, and trainees must adhere to the more restrictive Johns Hopkins Medicine Policy on Interaction with Industry that can be found at this link https://industryinteraction.jhu.edu/jhm-policy-on-interaction-with-industry.
