Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — speaking fees (59.0%), consulting fees and travel and lodging — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. Neurocrine Biosciences, Inc. accounts for 95.7% of it on its own, with 17 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2024 at $22,413 and has fallen 98.6% since, to $307 in 2025. Among psychiatric/mental health clinicians in MI 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 144 payments — averaging $300.38 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
