Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

This record is dominated by consulting fees: $71,043 of the $71,113 with a category attached, or 99.9%. 5 manufacturers reported payments, led by Biogen at 46.7% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2020 at $15,750 and has fallen 89.5% since, to $1,650 in 2025. Among neurology clinicians in CA 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.

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.
