Data Submission and Attestation Period Open until April 3, 2015
Important Note to Industry: The Open Payments data submission period will remain open until midnight (Eastern Standard Time) on Friday, April 3, 2015 to accommodate all applicable manufacturers and group purchasing organizations (GPOs) that are in the final stages of data submission.
The Open Payments system is scheduled to open for review and dispute on April 6, 2015. This will be the start of the 45-day review and dispute process for physicians and teaching hospitals, which occurs after applicable manufacturers and GPOs submit their payment data to CMS and before the data becomes public. The review process is voluntary, but to participate in the process and review and correct the data, physicians and teaching hospitals will need to register in both the CMS Enterprise Identity Management System (EIDM) and the Open Payments system.
