What this record shows

That places this record below the midpoint for obstetrics & gynecology clinicians in CA, where the typical reported total is $387.
Across 3 payments — averaging $88.93 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

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.
| Company | Payments | Total |
|---|---|---|
| Boston Scientific | 1 | $137 |
| AbbVie | 1 | $112 |
| Ferring Pharmaceuticals Inc. | 1 | $18 |
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.
- GENERAL PAIN MANAGEMENT$137
- Orilissa$112
