Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — food and beverage (45.0%), travel and lodging and education — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 27 manufacturers reported payments, led by Orthofix Medical, Inc. at 30.1% of the total. Among podiatrist clinicians in PA 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.
Across 116 payments — averaging $103.47 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
