Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 99.3% of the total across 406 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. It is spread thinly across 25 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 14.1% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Reporting peaked in 2021 at $2,953 and has fallen 92.6% since, to $220 in 2024. Among psychiatry clinicians in CA 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.
