Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by speaking fees: $10,000 of the $14,132 with a category attached, or 70.8%. Intuitive Surgical accounts for 77.1% of it on its own, with 19 other manufacturers making up the rest. 2023 is the largest year on record at $10,600, 4.3 times the $2,457 reported in 2019. Among obstetrics & gynecology clinicians in UT 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.
