How to Make a Report or Inquiry
St. Elizabeth requests, expects, and encourages associates to report any suspected violations of laws, statutes, rules, or applicable regulations. No concern regarding conduct or compliance is too small. St. Elizabeth uses the following 3-step Reporting process to learn of potential problems. When faced with a potential compliance issue:
- Contact your supervisor or team leader. Our supervisors are attentive to problems and can typically solve them and provide appropriate follow-up. If your supervisor is unable to solve the problem, you should feel free to contact their supervisor.
- If your supervisor is not able to resolve your problem, or if you would prefer not to report the issue to your supervisor, call the Corporate Compliance Officer, at (859) 301-5580.
- In some cases, you may want to report a situation without revealing your identity. For those concerns, call the Compliance Line at 1-877-815-2414. This number is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
Consistent with our obligations under the law, St. Elizabeth will keep confidential the identity of any individuals about whom allegations of violations have been brought, unless or until it has been determined that violations have occurred.
Compliance Line: 1-877-815-2414
The Compliance Line is a confidential, toll-free phone number established for reporting suspected violations of laws, statutes, rules, and/or regulations. St. Elizabeth’s Compliance Line can be reached by calling 1-877-815-2414. Calls may be made to the Compliance Line 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. St. Elizabeth has contracted with an outside company for its operation of the Compliance Line. Strict guidelines and procedures protect those who wish to remain anonymous. Calls to the Compliance Line are not traced or recorded. Even if callers choose to identify themselves, their identity will be kept confidential to the fullest extent possible or as permitted by law.
Unfortunately, a reporting system of this type is subject to possible abuse. From time to time, individuals may attempt to harm or slander another individual through false accusations, malicious rumors, or other irresponsible actions. Such attempts, if proven, will be subject to discipline.
