Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by food and beverage: $3,633 of the $4,603 with a category attached, or 78.9%. It is spread thinly across 27 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 19.5% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Among nurse practitioner clinicians in MS with any reported payments, this total sits in the top 10% — high for the specialty, which is a reason to read the composition above rather than the number alone.
Across 166 payments — averaging $27.73 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
- Inspire Medical Systems, Inc.$898

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.
