Sunshine Act Reporting - Clarification for Clinical Research

Recorded Session
60 Minutes

This webinar will summarize the Sunshine Act or Open Payments Program requirements and provide practical solutions to the most common situations that are prevalent and necessary between sponsors and investigators.

The Sunshine Act or Open Payments Program requires manufacturers of drugs, medical devices, and biologics that participate in U.S. federal health care programs to report certain clinical investigator payments and items of value given to physicians and teaching hospitals. This Act was part of a healthcare reform bill adopted in March 2010. It came about due to requests for increased transparency about the financial relationships between physicians and the industry.
