Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by food and beverage: $29,349 of the $44,592 with a category attached, or 65.8%. It is spread thinly across 23 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 18.8%. Among optometrist clinicians in MO 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 568 payments — averaging $78.51 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
