What the Data Shows for Align Ophthalmics LLC

Three separate CMS disclosure tracks feed the all-tracks total above - General, Research, and Ownership/Investment - each reported under its own rules and combined here for one comparable figure. For Align Ophthalmics LLC that figure is drawn almost entirely from the General Payments track (day-to-day consulting, meals, travel and speaking fees). CMS releases each Program Year roughly 12 months after it ends; the methodology page covers the full standardization basis.

"Food and Beverage" leads the 1-category general-payment breakdown below at $497.15 (100.0% of General Payments, 13 transactions) - see our methodology for how research and ownership payments are reported separately.
