Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — speaking fees (51.2%), travel and lodging and consulting fees — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. Merck accounts for 97.6% of it on its own, with 2 other manufacturers making up the rest. Among infectious disease clinicians in FL 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 333 payments — averaging $1423.48 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

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 |
|---|---|---|
| Merck | 330 | $462,548 |
| Biofire Diagnostics, LLC | 2 | $11,378 |
| Pfizer | 1 | $94 |
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.
- GARDASIL 9$92,596
- BIOFIRE RESPIRATORY PANEL 2.1$11,378
- CAPVAXIVE$6,618
