Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 100.0% of the total across 4 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. Teva Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc. accounts for 63.5% of it on its own, with 2 other manufacturers making up the rest. That places this record below the midpoint for general practice clinicians in CA, where the typical reported total is $211.
