Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — consulting fees (53.7%), speaking fees and travel and lodging — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. Stryker accounts for 67.9% of it on its own, with 11 other manufacturers making up the rest. Among oral and maxillofacial surgery clinicians in CA 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.
Across 314 payments — averaging $639.01 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
