Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — food and beverage (58.9%), consulting fees and travel and lodging — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. It is spread thinly across 52 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 22.7%. 2025 is the largest year on record at $15,527, 9.5 times the $1,633 reported in 2021. Among adult health clinicians in FL 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 554 payments — averaging $55.16 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
- UCB, Inc.$7K
- CSL Behring$4K
- Catalyst Pharmaceuticals, Inc.$3K
- AstraZeneca$2K
- AbbVie$2K
- Amgen$1K
- plus $11K from 46 others
Across 2 payments — averaging $47.65 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.

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
$30,558 in reported general payments places this provider in the 95th percentile of 2,237 adult health providers in Florida.
