Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 99.9% of the total across 478 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. It is spread thinly across 44 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 14.2% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Reporting peaked in 2021 at $2,308 and has fallen 70.4% since, to $682 in 2025. Among medical clinicians in VA with any reported payments, this total sits in the top 10% — high for the specialty, which is a reason to read the composition above rather than the number alone.

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

$7,797 in reported general payments places this provider in the 90th percentile of 632 medical providers in Virginia.

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.

CompanyPaid to this providerPart D cost of their drugs
Novo NordiskOzempic$875$19,25218 claims
PfizerEliquis$254$15,65123 claims

GSKTrelegy Ellipta$305$9,35515 claims
Teva Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc.Acyclovir$53$34414 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 90th percentile of 632 medical providers in Virginia.
