Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

This record is dominated by food and beverage: $11,557 of the $13,184 with a category attached, or 87.7%. It is spread thinly across 57 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 16.0% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $3,955 and has fallen 51.1% since, to $1,936 in 2024. Among family medicine clinicians in SC 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.

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

$13,184 in reported general payments places this provider in the 95th percentile of 2,153 family medicine providers in South Carolina.
