Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by travel and lodging: $1,686 of the $2,586 with a category attached, or 65.2%. Amgen accounts for 66.9% of it on its own, with 4 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2024 at $1,729 and has fallen 94.4% since, to $98 in 2025. Among emergency medicine clinicians in NC 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.
