Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by food and beverage: $12,232 of the $16,914 with a category attached, or 72.3%. It is spread thinly across 37 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 19.7%. Reporting peaked in 2024 at $5,719 and has fallen 60.9% since, to $2,236 in 2025. Among physician assistant 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 659 payments — averaging $25.67 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.
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.
