Mona was working as a medical biller-coder supervisor for a medical physician group in primary care called The Olaf Group, and she was also a shareholder and director in the overall medical company. After about two years of supervising the Olaf Group, Mona heard about an opportunity to do billing for a dermatology practice in town. Although she knew the Olaf Group could do the work, Mona thought that it would be more effective for the dermatologist if she did the work independently. So, instead of bringing the opportunity to the Olaf Group, Mona decided to just take on the dermatology work on her own. Has Mona breached any fiduciary duties to her group?
a. Yes, because she has a responsibility to bring the opportunity to the Olaf Group first.
b. No, because the dermatology work was not related to the medical billing-coding office work.
c. No, because Mona is entitled to take contract work independently.
d. Yes, because the Olaf Group could do the work.
