Merck is moving forward with voluntary disclosure of payments and will be engaging stakeholders in related discussions.

In considering the types of activities/categories whereby Member companies would disclose aggregated payments for the following categories:

  1. Fee for Health Care Professional Services

A detailed description of each category can be found in the Voluntary Framework on Disclosure of Payments, developed by Innovative Medicines Canada.
