Journal Article
The Sunshine Act — Effects on Physicians
2013
Overview
Under the Physician Payments Sunshine Act, drug and device manufacturers and group purchasing organizations will report to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services payments made to physicians and teaching hospitals, and the data will be posted on a public website.
The new Physician Payments Sunshine Act requires public reporting of payments to physicians and teaching hospitals from pharmaceutical and medical device companies, as well as reporting of certain ownership interests (see box). Sponsored by Senators Charles Grassley (R-IA) and Herb Kohl (D-WI) and supported by consumer advocates, the law covers meals, honoraria, travel expenses, and grants from manufacturers, as well as ownership or investment interests in group purchasing organizations (GPOs), by physicians or members of their immediate family. Information will be posted on a public website that will identify physicians who have received payments or hold ownership. Data collection begins . . .
