Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by food and beverage: $8,658 of the $10,400 with a category attached, or 83.3%. It is spread thinly across 52 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 20.1% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Among nurse practitioner 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 427 payments — averaging $24.36 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

- Food & beverage$8,65883%

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
$10,400 in reported general payments places this provider in the 95th percentile of 3,351 nurse practitioner providers in Michigan.

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 |
|---|---|---|
| GSKTrelegy Ellipta, Anoro Ellipta, Breo Ellipta, Incruse Ellipta | $656 | $523,207580 claims |
| Boehringer IngelheimOfev, Stiolto Respimat, Spiriva Respimat | $457 | $490,097151 claims |

| Teva Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc.Qvar Redihaler | $36 | $3,63212 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 3,351 nurse practitioner providers in Michigan.
