Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 100.0% of the total across 128 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 17 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 15.9% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $927 and has fallen 96.4% since, to $33 in 2022. That places this record below the midpoint for clinical cardiac electrophysiology clinicians in LA, where the typical reported total is $18,132.
Across 128 payments — averaging $14.36 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
