Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 100.0% of the total across 1 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. Every reported general payment came from a single manufacturer, Amgen.
Across 1 payment — averaging $121.83 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
- Amgen$122
Across 89 payments — averaging $7656.81 each. Payments tied to a research study. These frequently flow through the physician to a hospital or research institution rather than to the physician personally.
- Janssen Research & Development, LLC$335K
- E.r. Squibb & Sons, L.L.C.$316K
- Novartis$25K
- Swedish Orphan Biovitrum AB$5K
What the payments were for
- Food & beverage$122100%
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.
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.
| Company | Payments | Total |
|---|---|---|
| Amgen | 1 | $122 |
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.
- Otezla$122
