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.

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.

How this compares

$9,410 in reported general payments places this provider in the 95th percentile of 6,006 emergency medicine providers in California.

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
Neurocrine Biosciences, Inc.Ingrezza$384$146,02714 claims
Johnson & JohnsonInvega Sustenna, Risperdal Consta$337$111,81944 claims
AbbVieVraylar$1,102$18,36112 claims
Takeda Pharmaceuticals U.S.A., Inc.Trintellix$704$10,84719 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 95th percentile of 6,006 emergency medicine providers in California.
