Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by consulting fees: $7,125 of the $10,130 with a category attached, or 70.3%. Pfizer accounts for 98.7% of it on its own, with 2 other manufacturers making up the rest. 2025 is the largest year on record at $6,831, more than ten times the $99 reported in 2019. Among infectious disease clinicians in NJ with any reported payments, this total sits in the top 10% — high for the specialty, which is a reason to read the composition above rather than the number alone.

General payments by program year
Who reported the general payments
Companies are grouped under their corporate parent — a single manufacturer often files under several CMS reporting entities. Research and ownership payments are counted separately and are not in this table.
What the payments were tied to
Products named in the reported payments. Only payments of $100 or more are attributed here — the typical reported payment nationally is a meal worth about $16, and listing those product-by-product would be noise.
- PAXLOVID$9,999
How this compares
$10,130 in reported general payments places this provider in the 90th percentile of 334 infectious disease providers in New Jersey.
