Policy Commitments Sample Clauses

Policy Commitments. MMC has long recognized the special needs and concerns of all persons who are limited English proficient ("LEP persons"). For purposes of this Agreement, an "LEP person" is an individual whose primary language is not English and who cannot speak, read, write or understand the English language at the level necessary for effective communication with MMC personnel. MMC continues to commits itself to providing interpreters and other language assistance, at no cost to LEP persons, as necessary for effective communication in connection with treatment rendered by MMC to a patient and in order to ensure that LEP persons are not excluded from or denied equal access to MMC services. To that end, MMC shall always have in place policies and procedures combining the use of face-to-face and telephone interpreter services and translated materials, designed to enable effective communication with LEP persons, in languages they can understand, in MMC's programs and activities, during all hours of their operation, at every MMC location covered by this Agreement. MMC is committed to continue evaluation and improvement of these procedures, at all levels, in consultation with appropriate staff, LEP persons, community groups and their representatives and public officials. MMC's goal is to provide every LEP person served by MMC with language services necessary for effective communication. MMC further commits to take appropriate corrective action if MMC's on-going quality improvement reviews, a complaint, or other information indicates a failure by any of its personnel to adhere to MMC's LEP policy or this Agreement, or reveals other difficulties with their implementation. The following provisions detail specific actions to be taken by MMC.
