CMS Issues Final Reminder on Program Year 2023 Open Payments Data
In June 2024, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) published Program Year 2023 Open Payments data along with updated and newly submitted data from previous program years. The Program Year 2023 records are available for review and dispute in the Open Payments system through December 31, 2024.
Covered recipient review of the data is voluntary, but strongly encouraged. If you believe any records attributed to you are inaccurate or incomplete in any way, you may initiate a dispute and work with the reporting entity to reach a resolution. To dispute records from earlier years that are no longer available within the Open Payments system, you must contact the reporting entity directly. CMS does not mediate or facilitate disputes; it is up to the reporting entity and covered recipient to work together to reach a dispute resolution.
- Records are only available for review in the Open Payments system until the end of the calendar year in which they are first published; you can see previous years’ data by searching the data at https://openpaymentsdata.cms.gov/.
- For more information on the review, dispute, and correction process visit the Covered Recipient Review and Dispute Page.
