Principle-Based Initiative Agreement in the Orthopaedic Medicine Industry

Mission

Foster transparency and integrity standards within the orthopaedic medicine sector in Argentina

Goals

The initiative seeks to foster transparency and integrity standards within the sector and in relation to clients and healthcare professionals and associations. There is commitment as well to scale up the initiative to a form of Certifying Business Coalition, which, different from a principle-based initiative, would entail a greater degree of external enforceability.

Activities

The initiative addresses compliance with integrity standards in the following issues: anti-corruption; political campaigns and donations; transparent accounting; compliance programs; training; value chain.
