Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — gifts (42.9%), food and beverage and travel and lodging — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 19 manufacturers reported payments, led by Neurometrix Inc at 42.9% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2021 at $10,036 and has fallen 99.8% since, to $21 in 2025. Among pain medicine clinicians in NY with any reported payments, this total sits in the top 10% — high for the specialty, which is a reason to read the composition above rather than the number alone.
Across 127 payments — averaging $170.03 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
