Open Payments Program Year 2024 Data Submission

The Open Payments System formally opened for Program Year 2024 data submission on February 1, 2025. Applicable manufacturers and group purchasing organizations (GPOs) (collectively referred to as reporting entities) may register and/or recertify and begin submitting Program Year 2024 data.

All data submission activities are completed within the Open Payments System [ https://openpayments.system.cms.gov/ ]. If your organization has reportable Open Payments data, registration in the Open Payments system is required to submit data to CMS. If your organization is already registered, please remember to recertify; yearly recertification is *required *for entities with reportable data. If you have not accessed your account in the last 180 days, you will need to call the Open Payments Help Desk to reactivate your account.

For Program Year 2024 reporting to be considered timely, the data must be both submitted and attested by March 31, 2025. Any records submitted or attested after the deadline are considered late and therefore noncompliant with program requirements. Noncompliant records may result in civil monetary penalties.

CMS recommends completing the submission process as early as possible in the submission window to avoid potential slower system responses at the end of the submission window, as this will not constitute a valid mitigating circumstance for a late submission.

The Open Payments system no longer accepts records for Program Years 2013 through 2018.

Data Collection Reminder: Teaching Hospital Context Field

The requirement for submitting additional context is mandatory for teaching hospital records reported since Program Year 2023. This is a free form text field to help the hospital identify the payment in its internal tracking system to be able to verify it during the pre-publication review process. This information can include payment reference number, check number, name of the hospital’s department to which the payment was made and/or the name of the point of contact within the hospital who signed for the payment. Information provided in this field will not be included in the publicly released dataset and appropriate content is up to the discretion of the reporting entity.

Requirements to Update Reporting Entity Contact Information

All reporting entities should review their contact information. The contact information should include at least two up-to-date points of contact in the organization. This action should be taken every year during recertification. It also must be kept current for at least two years following record submission, even if the reporting entity does not submit records for subsequent program years.

*Contact information includes a mailing address, email address, and names of the points of contact.* If your organization has incorrectly entered this information or if it is outdated, you may not receive crucial information about potentially inaccurate, untimely, or incomplete records. Not receiving compliance notices due to out-of-date contact information is not a mitigating circumstance for failing to comply and any civil monetary penalties that may result. Accurate contact information ensures that your organization will receive all important program and compliance related communications, and is required by program regulations [ https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-42/chapter-IV/subchapter-A/part-403/subpart-I/section-403.908 ].
