What constitutes a conflict of interest? If membership of the Policy Committee is advisory only, is it important to have a signed conflict of interest statement? If membership is fluid, how to get a conflict of interest statement signed? Each member of the Policy Committee shall continue as such until the next annual meeting of CCIC, and until a successor is appointed for such person, unless the committee shall be sooner terminated, or unless such member be removed from such committee by a majority vote of the Board of Directors, or unless such member shall cease to qualify as a member thereof.

3 If Policy Committee has members who are not members of CCIC and/or are not CCIC Board Members, should the Policy Committee take votes? Any interested individual Any Active Member of CCIC o How to determine Active Members of CCIC o Individuals o Voting members of an organizational member of CCIC Exclusions o Pharmaceuticals o Vaccine distributors Individuals who are employees Voting members of an organizational member of CCIC Targeted members o Outreach to identified CCIC stakeholders to ensure representation CCIC Board members only Two unexcused absences from regularly scheduled Policy Committee meetings will result in loss of voting privileges. A Policy Committee meeting absence may be excused through prior written approval from the CCIC Executive Director or any one of the Co-Chairs. Policy Committee members may attend all meetings of the Policy Committee, unless a Co-Chair determines that a meeting should be held in Executive Session. Only Voting Members of the Policy Committee may attend an Executive Session. Governance The Policy Committee is overseen by two co-chairs. One of whom is a Board Director One of whom is a health care provider who may or may not be a member of the Board. The Board shall approve Committee Co-Chairs annually. The Co-Chairs are Voting Members of the Policy Committee. Committee decisions are generally made by a consensus process, although a more formal process of voting may be employed upon request of any Voting Member of the Policy Committee. A request to have a vote on any matter must be submitted in writing to all Voting Members of the Policy Committee at least 7 business days prior to the meeting at which the vote will be taken. A majority of the Voting Members of the Policy Committee shall constitute a quorum, and the act of a majority of the Voting Members present at the meeting at which a quorum is present shall be the act of the committee. Votes may be taken in open meeting or in Executive Session. Meetings Meetings are called by the one or both of the Co-chairs. Any member of the committee may bring a matter before the committee for its consideration. 3
4 The Committee will have monthly meetings during the legislative session and bi-monthly meetings during other times. Public Policy Development, Adoption and Reconsideration By November of each year the Policy Committee will develop and submit for Board approval public policy goals for the following calendar year, with input from CCIC membership, as determined by the Policy Committee. The Board adopts annual policy goals based on recommendations from the Policy Committee and additional input from the Board and CCIC membership, as determined by the Board. The Policy Committee develops and implements strategies to achieve Board-approved policy goals. Policy is by its nature a changing environment and the CCIC Executive Director is authorized to implement strategies approved by the Policy Committee. The CCIC Executive Director is responsible for calling Policy Committee meetings, setting the agenda, reporting to the Board of Directors, and acting as the primary contact for lobbyists, CCCIC members, other stakeholders and the press. The CCIC Executive Director will inform the Policy Committee Co-Chairs as soon as possible about legislative and regulatory issues, including but not limited to: sponsorship of legislation, proposed and pending legislation affecting CCIC, positions and concerns of stakeholders regarding legislation affecting CCIC, hearings and floor action regarding legislation affecting CCIC. The Executive Director will inform the Board as soon as practicable about any substantive change in legislation or regulations concerning the CCIC mission. Any Board member may request, in writing, a Board vote concerning any such substantive change. The Executive Director and any member of the Policy Committee may submit recommendations to the Board during a calendar year with respect to policies, legislation or regulations. Options for Discussion: Is there a way to define more precisely the role of the Board, the Policy Committee and the Executive Director? If the Policy Committee mission is to develop and implement strategies, how does it determine those strategies? By consensus? By vote? Or do all decisions on strategy go to the full Board? Or should there be a few (i.e., three) Board members on the Policy Committee who can vote on behalf of the Board? Policy Committee Member Responsibilities Members of the Policy Committee are responsible for staying abreast of developments related to the business of the Committee, for participating in Committee meetings, for providing guidance in the formulation of policies and implementing strategies, and for promoting policies to their own constituents and community members. Policy Committee members will annually sign a statement acknowledging the responsibilities of a Policy Committee member and a Policy Committee conflict of interest statement. Inappropriate Activity 4
5 CCIC will not make a contribution or expenditure in connection with a candidate, a political committee that supports or opposes a candidate, or a political party. CCIC will not engage in any activity that promotes or discourages a vote on behalf of any individual candidate. The Policy Committee, in consultation with the Board Treasurer and Executive Director, will monitor activities and expenditures to ensure that CCIC does not engage in more than insubstantial lobbying activities within the meaning of IRC 501(c)(3) and the CCIC election to operate under IRC Section 501 (h), and does not use any federal or state funds in violation of applicable provisions of contracts and grants with respect to lobbying. 5
