Release-over-release change
General Payments changed from PY2023 to PY2024
Menicon's CMS-reported General Payments increased by $3.8K (+1309.6%) 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: MENICON AMERICA INCPY2023: MENICON AMERICA INCPY2024: Menicon. 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 Menicon
The all-tracks total above combines three CMS reporting categories - General Payments, Research Payments, and Ownership/Investment interests - not one undifferentiated figure. For Menicon that figure is drawn almost entirely from the General Payments track (day-to-day consulting, meals, travel and speaking fees). CMS publishes each Program Year's data roughly 12 months after the reporting period ends, so this reflects the most recently released cycle; see our methodology for how the tracks are standardized and compared across companies.
The 1-category breakdown below covers general payments only (see our methodology for how research and ownership payments are reported separately). The largest general-payment category is "Food and Beverage" at $4.1K, accounting for 100.0% of this company's General Payments and 35 transactions.
General Payment Breakdown by Type
"Food and Beverage" leads Menicon's 1-category general-payment breakdown at $4.1K, 100.0% of the reported total.
