Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

The money is spread across several categories — speaking fees (56.1%), food and beverage and travel and lodging — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 49 manufacturers reported payments, led by Esperion Therapeutics, Inc. at 35.1% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $24,434 and has fallen 95.5% since, to $1,100 in 2025. Among family medicine clinicians in KY 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.

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

$70,902 in reported general payments places this provider in the 95th percentile of 1,559 family medicine providers in Kentucky.
