What this record shows
This record is dominated by food and beverage: $3,536 of the $5,261 with a category attached, or 67.2%. 33 manufacturers reported payments, led by Axonics, Inc. at 25.1% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2021 at $2,437 and has fallen 66.5% since, to $817 in 2025. Among physician assistant clinicians in MA 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 163 payments — averaging $32.28 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
