Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 91.6% of the total across 370 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. 28 manufacturers reported payments, led by AbbVie at 36.0% of the total. Among nurse practitioner clinicians in VA with any reported payments, this total sits in the top 5% — high for the specialty, which is a reason to read the composition above rather than the number alone.
Across 370 payments — averaging $21.87 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

Most of this is food and beverage — typically meals provided during product presentations at a clinic or hospital. Nationally that is the single largest category of reported payments by count.
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.
How this compares
$8,090 in reported general payments places this provider in the 95th percentile of 2,166 nurse practitioner providers in Virginia.

Paid to pharmacies, not to this prescriber.
Companies that both paid and supply prescribed drugs
These companies both reported payments to this provider and make drugs the provider prescribed under Medicare Part D in 2024. For most specialties this overlap is expected — a cardiologist who is paid by a cardiology drugmaker also treats heart disease. It is shown so the reader can see it, not because it implies anything on its own.
| Company | Paid to this provider | Part D cost of their drugs |
|---|---|---|
| AbbVieRinvoq, Creon, Linzess | $2,912 | $649,867216 claims |
| Salix Pharmaceuticals, A Division Of Bausch Health US, LLCXifaxan, Trulance | $1,050 | $91,22647 claims |
| Aimmune Therapeutics, Inc.Zenpep | $53 | $59,55618 claims |
| Ardelyx, Inc.Ibsrela | $473 | $24,13314 claims |

| Ferring Pharmaceuticals Inc.Clenpiq | $124 | $7,08342 claims |
Reading this fairly. The Part D column is what drug plans and patients paid pharmacies — this provider received none of it, and it reflects how many patients they treat and what those drugs cost. Against peers, this provider's reported payments sit in the 95th percentile of 2,166 nurse practitioner providers in Virginia.
