Release-over-release change

General Payments changed from PY2023 to PY2024

Verathon Inc.'s CMS-reported General Payments increased by $276.6K (+69.8%) 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: VERATHON INC.PY2023: VERATHON INC.PY2024: Verathon Inc.. 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 Verathon Inc.

The all-tracks total above combines three CMS reporting categories - General Payments, Research Payments, and Ownership/Investment interests - not one undifferentiated figure. For Verathon Inc. 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.

Of the 2 general-payment categories charted below, "Consulting Fee" is the largest at $590.3K across 132 transactions, 87.7% of this company's General Payments (see our methodology for how research and ownership payments are reported separately).
