Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 96.7% of the total across 47 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 22 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 11.8% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $536 and has fallen 57.3% since, to $229 in 2022.

Who reported the general payments

Companies are grouped under their corporate parent — a single manufacturer often files under several CMS reporting entities. Research and ownership payments are counted separately and are not in this table.
