Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 100.0% of the total across 107 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. Supernus Pharmaceuticals, Inc. accounts for 63.4% of it on its own, with 17 other manufacturers making up the rest. Among pediatrics clinicians in VA 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.
Across 107 payments — averaging $19.91 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

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.
