Has Francisco Diaz received payments from drug or device companies?

Does a payment mean Francisco Diaz did something wrong?

No. Federal law requires drug and device makers to report almost every transfer of value to a physician, including a $14 sandwich at a lunch presentation. Consulting fees, research funding and royalties to device inventors are ordinary, legal parts of medicine. This site reports what was disclosed; it makes no allegation.

Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

The money is spread across several categories — speaking fees (45.1%), travel and lodging and food and beverage — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. Medtronic accounts for 91.2% of it on its own, with 10 other manufacturers making up the rest. 2025 is the largest year on record at $30,878, more than ten times the $1,648 reported in 2019. Among pediatric critical care medicine clinicians in PR 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.
