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.

Company	Paid to this provider	Part D cost of their drugs
Johnson & JohnsonInvega Sustenna	$1,273	$170,29163 claims
Otsuka America Pharmaceutical, Inc.Abilify Maintena	$1,005	$69,51626 claims
AbbVieVraylar	$735	$43,45430 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 85th percentile of 1,119 psychiatry providers in Ohio.
