IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING THE OPEN PAYMENTS DATABASE
The Open Payments program is a national disclosure program that promotes transparency and accountability by helping consumers understand the financial relationships between pharmaceutical, medical device industries and physicians and teaching hospitals. The Open Payments database is a federal tool that can be used to search payments made by drug and device companies to physicians and teaching hospitals.
For informational purposes only, a link to the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Open Payments web page is provided here. The federal Physician Payments Sunshine Act requires that detailed information about payment and other payments of value worth over ten dollars ($10) from manufacturers of drugs, medical devices, and biologics to physicians and teaching hospitals be made available to the public.
