Release-over-release change
General Payments changed from PY2023 to PY2024
Ethicon US, LLC's CMS-reported General Payments increased by $529.6K (+49.4%) from PY2023 to PY2024.
How this year-over-year comparison is scoped
The comparison uses consecutive CMS program years only (current = prior + 1) from the manufacturer General Payments summary and excludes research and ownership or investment records. Non-consecutive year pairs are not shown as year-over-year change. This General Payments figure is not the all-tracks company total in the hero.
CMS source labels for this exact identifier: PY2022: ETHICON US, LLCPY2023: ETHICON US, LLCPY2024: Ethicon US, LLC. Matching identifiers support a bounded record comparison; a label difference would be reported as unresolved rather than treated as a corporate event.

What the Data Shows for Ethicon US, LLC
CMS Open Payments is not a single ledger: the all-tracks total shown above is General Payments plus Research Payments plus Ownership/Investment interests, each with its own disclosure rules. For Ethicon US, LLC that figure is drawn almost entirely from the General Payments track (day-to-day consulting, meals, travel and speaking fees). Data for a given Program Year arrives roughly a year after the period it covers; our methodology page documents the release cadence and how we standardize the tracks for cross-company comparison.
"Consulting Fee" leads the 6-category general-payment breakdown below at $921.1K (57.5% of General Payments, 212 transactions) - see our methodology for how research and ownership payments are reported separately.
