Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — consulting fees (45.0%), other and food and beverage — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 18 manufacturers reported payments, led by AbbVie at 48.2% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $43,390 and has fallen 91.9% since, to $3,514 in 2025. Among plastic 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 231 payments — averaging $473.25 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
