What healthcare providers should know.

Open Payments is a national disclosure program from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) that promotes a more financially transparent and accountable healthcare system.

Drug and medical device companies must report to CMS payments or transfers of value they make to certain healthcare providers and teaching hospitals for research, meals, travel, gifts, speaking fees, and more.

Each year, CMS makes the data available so the public can see it at openpaymentsdata.cms.gov.

CMS’s role is to collect and publish information submitted by reporting entities. CMS does not offer an opinion on what financial relationships may cause conflicts of interests. Simply, CMS publishes the data for public use and interpretation.
