Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 99.0% of the total across 234 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 28 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 16.3% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $844 and has fallen 95.4% since, to $39 in 2025.
Across 234 payments — averaging $13.71 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
