Jan 27, 2026

CMS Updates Open Payments Data

The Open Payments data is updated to reflect changes that took place since the June 2025 publication.  The updated dataset is available at: https://openpaymentsdata.cms.gov/.  The Open Payments data is refreshed once annually to include updates from disputes and other data corrections made since the initial data publication.  The refreshed Open Payments data reflects the following:

  • Record Updates:
    • Changes to non-disputed records made on or before November 15, 2025, are published.
  • Disputed Records:
    • Dispute resolutions completed on or before December 31, 2025, are displayed with the updated information.
    • Records with active disputes that were not resolved by December 31, 2025, are displayed as disputed.
  • Record Deletions:
    • Records deleted before December 31, 2025, are removed from the Open Payments published dataset.  Records deleted after December 31, 2025, remained in the published dataset, but will be removed during the next data publication in June 2026.

The following is not included in the data refresh:

  • Any records attested to after March 31, 2025.
  • Any disputed records in which the resolution resulted in a change to the covered recipient.
  • Changes made to non-disputed records after November 15, 2025.
  • Changes made to disputed records after December 31, 2025.

Applicable manufacturers and group purchasing organizations (GPOs) submitted the Open Payments data; CMS publishes the data as received and does not alter the data in any way.  For more information about Open Payments data publication, visit: www.cms.gov/openpayments.
