CMS Open Payments Review Period – Managing Disputes and Late Submissions
Each year, the CMS Open Payments review and dispute period, April 1st through May 15th, places pressure on pharmaceutical manufacturers to validate data accuracy, resolve disputes, and submit corrections under tight deadlines. Late submissions, corrections or unresolved disputes can increase compliance risk, invite regulatory scrutiny, and damage stakeholder trust, particularly as expectations around aggregate spend and transparency reporting continue to rise.
