What the Data Shows for Geron Corporation
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 Geron Corporation, that total blends General Payments (day-to-day consulting, meals, travel and speaking fees, shown separately above) with Research and Ownership/Investment interest records, each governed by its own CMS reporting rules. CMS releases each Program Year roughly 12 months after it ends; the methodology page covers the full standardization basis.
17 transactions worth $59.5K make "Compensation for Services Other Than Consulting" the top general-payment category in the 4-category breakdown below, 65.3% of General Payments (see our methodology for how research and ownership payments are reported separately).
