輝瑞因藥物賄賂支付近六千萬賠償金




輝瑞將支付5970萬美元解決與偏頭痛藥物的回扣指控

紐約(路透社)- 輝瑞(NYSE:PFE)將支付5970萬美元,以解決一項指控,該指控指的是它收購的公司通過支付回扣來欺騙醫療保險和其他醫療保健計劃,促使醫生開立偏頭痛藥物Nurtec ODT。美國司法部於週五發表聲明表示。

司法部指出,從2020年3月1日到2022年9月30日,Biohaven Pharmaceuticals違反了聯邦虛假索賠法,通過為醫生提供演講費和在高檔餐廳的餐飲來誘使他們更頻繁地開立Nurtec。

政府表示,某些演講計劃中,同一醫生多次參加,並未獲得任何教育益處,甚至有醫生的配偶、家庭成員和同事參加,這些人並不需要在場。

輝瑞在2022年10月以115億美元收購Biohaven後,終止了Nurtec的演講計劃。

美國紐約西區檢察官Trini Ross表示:“病人有權知道他們的醫生開立藥物是基於醫生的醫療判斷,而不是來自製藥公司的財務激勵。”

輝瑞在同意和解的過程中並未承認錯誤。

輝瑞在一份聲明中表示:“我們很高興能將這一遺留問題擺在身後,從而可以繼續專注於病人的需求。”

此次和解解決了一項由前Biohaven神經科學銷售專家Patricia Frattasio於2021年8月在紐約羅徹斯特聯邦法院提起的訴訟。她將從和解中獲得約840萬美元。約4180萬美元將支付給聯邦政府,另外950萬美元將撥給州醫療補助計劃。

根據虛假索賠法,舉報者可以代表政府提起訴訟並分享賠償金。

這一事件不僅揭示了製藥公司在推廣藥物過程中可能存在的不當行為,還引發了對醫療系統中利益衝突的廣泛關注。隨著醫療行業的透明度和規範性需求不斷提高,未來類似事件的發生可能會受到更嚴格的監管和審查。這也提醒了醫生們在開立處方時應更加謹慎,確保其決策是基於病人的最佳利益,而非外部的財務誘惑。

[Enhanced Artistic Prompt]

A highly detailed portrait of a young Asian woman inspired by the delicate, doll-like beauty of Imada Mio (精緻洋娃娃臉). She has large, round, luminous eyes with a deep, expressive gaze, a petite V-shaped face, full rosy cheeks, and porcelain-soft skin. Her expression is a captivating blend of innocence, youthful energy, and subtle flirtation, capturing an aura of pure allure.

Her hair is long, dark chocolate brown, with natural volume and texture—slightly tousled in an artful, “just woke up” messy style (剛睡醒的凌亂感), with soft strands falling over her face and shoulders. She wears an oversized, semi-translucent white button-down boyfriend shirt (男友風白襯衫), loosely draped and unbuttoned at the top, elegantly revealing her collarbones and creating a “bottomless” fashion look (下衣失蹤風格) with a sense of relaxed intimacy.

The overall aesthetic is reminiscent of a contemporary Japanese Gravure photobook (寫真集風格), evoking both pure charm and subtle sensuality (Pure & Sexy vibe). Use bright, high-key natural lighting to create a soft, ethereal glow, with smooth, radiant skin texture. Emphasize pastel color grading and gentle film grain, referencing the signature look of Fujifilm PRO 400H for a dreamy, cinematic finish. Compose the image artistically, focusing on beauty, mood, and expressive detail, as if captured in a candid, intimate moment.

— full body or mid-length portrait, shallow depth of field, delicate highlights, softly blurred minimalist background, inviting eyes, tasteful and elegant composition. Create a hyper-realistic 8K close-up body portrait of a male model, using the uploaded photo as the exact facial reference. Maintain 100% accuracy of the facial features — do not alter or modify any aspect of the face. Render the skin texture, lighting, and overall composition with photo-realistic detail, ensuring lifelike color tones and natural depth of field. A man with his original hairstyle, he is standing confidently, hands in his pockets, looking directly at the camera. He is wearing a simple, light beige crew-neck sweater and dark trousers.
He is positioned between two decorated Christmas trees. The tree to his left is adorned with gold and white ornaments and warm lights, with wrapped red and gold gifts visible at its base. The tree to his right is decorated with red and gold ornaments. The background shows a warm, indoor setting, likely a home, with soft lighting, creating a festive and inviting atmosphere. The overall impression is one of relaxed holiday cheer. Generate an ultra-realistic, highly ultra-detailed, 8k resolution with 1080x1080 pixel portrait of me using the uploaded image for reference (preserved the likeness and the original face for reference) of a striking, ultra-sharp black and white studio portrait of a young woman with a powerful, direct gaze. She is seated gracefully on a seamless bright white floor, her legs crossed in a stylized, almost sculptural pose, with one knee raised and her hands clasped firmly over it. Her posture exudes a blend of strength and quiet contemplation. Her long, sleek, dark brown hair is meticulously parted down the middle, falling evenly over her shoulders, framing her face with elegant precision. Her makeup is refined and impactful, featuring intensely defined eyes with dark eyeliner, subtle shading, and prominent, well-groomed eyebrows. Her lips are natural, complementing her smooth, matte complexion. She is dressed in a simple, form-fitting black long-sleeved bodysuit, which accentuates the natural contours of her body without distraction. There are no accessories, maintaining a pure and minimalist aesthetic. *** The lighting is soft, even, and highly diffused, creating subtle, sculptural shadows that define her form and facial features without any harshness. The seamless pure white background provides an expansive, ethereal setting, isolating the subject and enhancing the monochromatic palette. The composition is a perfectly balanced medium full shot, centering the model and emphasizing the strong, symmetrical lines of her pose. The image is rendered with exquisite detail and clarity, from the individual strands of her hair to the subtle textures of her skin. The overall style is minimalist fine art portraiture, blending classic elegance with a contemporary edge, focusing on form, emotional depth, and timeless beauty.
