Executive Summary
Device trade association and Kaplan EduNeering launch an hour-long, online training course on AdvaMed's recently revised code of ethics on interactions with health care professionals, which, among other things, forbids device firms to provide entertainment, recreation and non-educational gifts of any value to physicians. The code takes effect July 1 (1"The Gray Sheet" Dec. 22, 2008, p. 5). Princeton, N.J.-based Kaplan EduNeering also provides online training and other tools to FDA's Office of Regulatory Affairs. The AdvaMed course is available for purchase at www.AdvaMed.org/MemberPortal/About/Code
