Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 100.0% of the total across 6 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. 4 manufacturers reported payments, led by Novartis at 55.6% of the total. 2025 is the largest year on record at $225, 9.6 times the $23 reported in 2021. That places this record below the midpoint for hematology & oncology clinicians in AZ, where the typical reported total is $6,870.

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 |
|---|---|---|
| Novartis | 2 | $155 |
| Vertex | 2 | $64 |
| Gamida Cell Inc. | 1 | $39 |
| Jazz Pharmaceuticals Inc. | 1 | $21 |
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.
- KYMRIAH$132
