Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by consulting fees: $354,547 of the $390,209 with a category attached, or 90.9%. Edwards Lifesciences accounts for 94.9% of it on its own, with 2 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $133,049 and has fallen 82.9% since, to $22,706 in 2025. Among cardiovascular disease clinicians in MI 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 59 payments — averaging $6613.71 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

What the payments were tied to
Products named in the reported payments. Only payments of $100 or more are attributed here — the typical reported payment nationally is a meal worth about $16, and listing those product-by-product would be noise.
