Conference Reimbursement. All Housestaff Officers shall be entitled to reimbursement for certain expenses related to a presentation at a conference provided that the conference was accredited for Continuing Medical Education and the designated institutional official or his or her designee approved the resident’s participation in the conference. The resident shall be reimbursed for the travel, materials (unless such materials can be provided by the University), registration fees, lodging and food for the day before, day of and day after the presentation. Presentation for these purposes is defined as the presentation of a paper to an audience as specified in the program or as a first author of a poster. The presenter will be reimbursed for only one presentation per paper or poster. Exceptions can be made with the approval of the appropriate Xxxx for GME or his/her designee. All requests for presentation reimbursement must be submitted in accordance with University Policy at least 1 month prior to the presentation. Requests shall not be unreasonably denied. The Xxxx of GME makes the final and binding decision. If the Housestaff Officer does not receive reimbursement within 45 working days from the date of his/her complete submission of receipts for expenses, the Associate Xxxx of Finance at the appropriate school shall be notified. The above shall not prevent a program from reimbursing for conference fees and expenses in addition to what is described above. All policies are contingent upon adherence to ACGME rules for duty hours as it relates to residents who remain on-site. LICENSURE
