General payments by program year
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.
| Company | Payments | Total |
|---|---|---|
| Ferring Pharmaceuticals Inc. | 58 | $2,424 |
| Organon | 26 | $587 |
| Merck | 31 | $518 |
| EMD Serono, Inc. | 17 | $441 |
| Johnson & Johnson | 2 | $127 |
| AbbVie | 3 | $63 |
| Vertical Pharmaceuticals, LLC | 3 | $59 |
| Samsung HME America, Inc. | 3 | $52 |
| Hologic Sales And Service, LLC | 1 | $28 |
| Novo Nordisk | 1 | $25 |
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
Too few reproductive endocrinology providers in Louisianato place this figure against a meaningful peer group, so we don't.
