The average per transaction — $55,242 — is the number worth reading. A large total spread across hundreds of thousands of transactions is a company buying a great many modest meals at educational presentations. A large total across few transactions means consulting, speaking or royalty arrangements with a small number of physicians. The totals alone do not distinguish them.
