Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 95.9% of the total across 255 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. It is spread thinly across 39 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 18.3% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Reporting peaked in 2021 at $2,399 and has fallen 80.1% since, to $477 in 2025. Among physician assistant clinicians in CA 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.

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.

CompanyPaid to this providerPart D cost of their drugs
Incyte CorporationJakafi$14$516,07829 claims
Almatica Pharma LLCSertraline Hcl$15$21415 claims
Amneal Pharmaceuticals LLCLevothyroxine Sodium$22$20628 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 90th percentile of 10,423 physician assistant providers in California.
