Transparency Review enables stakeholders to navigate CMS Open Payments data, which is a robust dataset consisting of transactions that describe the financial relationships between drug and medical device companies (referred to as "reporting entities") and certain health care providers (referred to as "covered recipients"). These relationships may involve payments to providers for things including but not limited to research, meals, travel, gifts or speaking fees.
Lextegrity's powerful dashboard platform enables users to traverse huge amounts of data to uncover trends, patterns, and outliers within extensive datasets, ensuring transparency and compliance and aiding strategic decision-making.
On the Transparency Review landing page, users can set defaults for the companies with which they are most interested in comparing information. Setting your Primary Company and Competitors will shape which companies' data is displayed as you navigate through the dashboards.
First, click on a name in the Company Name column of the Reporting Companies table.
Next, after clicking on a company's name, a small pop-up will open. From there, you can add/remove that company as either the Primary company or a Competitor.
If the company you are looking for isn't listed in the table under Reporting Companies, you can add it first by using the dropdown filter. After you add it to the list, you can set that company as either the Primary or Competitor.
To save your preferences, click the Save Custom View icon at the bottom of the dashboard.
