Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — speaking fees (47.7%), travel and lodging and food and beverage — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 4 manufacturers reported payments, led by Medtronic at 50.1% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $31,712 and has fallen 99.8% since, to $51 in 2024. Among nurse practitioner clinicians in VA 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 272 payments — averaging $212.94 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

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.
