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 |
|---|---|---|
| AbbVie(2 entities) | 1,177 | $952,768 |
| Galderma Laboratories, L.p. | 56 | $35,954 |
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.
- BOTOX$492,845
- KYBELLA$500
- NATRELLE SALINE-FILLED BREAST IMPLANTS$481
