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 |
|---|---|---|
| Seqirus USA Inc | 4 | $654 |
| Merck | 5 | $93 |
| GSK | 3 | $61 |
| Corium, LLC | 3 | $42 |
| Cepheid | 1 | $28 |
| Ironshore Pharmaceuticals Inc. | 1 | $22 |
| Sanofi Pasteur Inc. | 1 | $12 |
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
$912 in reported general payments places this provider in the 70th percentile of 913 pediatrics providers in Louisiana.
