What this record shows
This record is dominated by speaking fees: $183,950 of the $197,156 with a category attached, or 93.3%. Every reported general payment came from a single manufacturer, AbbVie. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $48,204 and has fallen 62.9% since, to $17,874 in 2025. Among general practice clinicians in NY 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 323 payments — averaging $610.39 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

What the payments were tied to
