Compliance with Sunshine Act
The National Physician Payment Transparency Program (Sunshine Act) is a section of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 that requires pharmaceutical and medical device companies to report to the Federal government certain payments (e.g. meals and other meeting expenses) they make to physicians and teaching hospitals. IMPACT Live programs fully comply with the Sunshine Act and, as a result, payments may be reportable based upon these requirements. For detailed information, please visit www.cms.gov.
