Office of Compliance and Audit Services

State University of New York Downstate Medical Center (SUNY DMC) is proud of its long tradition of ethical and responsible conduct and is committed to continuing to conduct its business lawfully and ethically. Each member of SUNY DMC is expected to adhere to this high standard whenever he or she acts on behalf of SUNY DMC. This includes, but is not limited to, when dealing with other employees, patients and their families, vendors, government regulators or the general public. Violations of legal or ethical requirements jeopardize the welfare of SUNY DMC, its employees, patients and the communities it serves.

The Compliance Program is intended to define the conduct expected of colleagues and employees, to provide guidance on how to resolve questions regarding legal and ethical issues, and to establish a mechanism for reporting of possible violations of law or ethical principles within SUNY DMC.

The Compliance Program applies to all SUNY DMC entities, including the Colleges of Medicine, Nursing and Health Related Professions, University Physicians of Brooklyn, Clinical Practice Management Plan, University Hospital of Brooklyn and the Research Foundation.
