The Open Payments Program Year 2025 data submission activities are underway. Data must be submitted and attested by March 31, 2026. Any record(s) 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.
Reminder: The Open Payments system no longer accepts records for Program Years 2013 through 2019.
For more information on the data submission process and helpful resources, visit the Open Payments Resources for Reporting Entities Page.
