Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by food and beverage: $3,941 of the $5,849 with a category attached, or 67.4%. 15 manufacturers reported payments, led by Atricure, Inc. at 50.3% of the total. 2025 is the largest year on record at $2,352, 9.8 times the $241 reported in 2021. Among surgical clinicians in GA 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 133 payments — averaging $43.98 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
