Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 100.0% of the total across 208 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. 9 manufacturers reported payments, led by AbbVie at 35.8% of the total. Among psychiatric/mental health, child & adolescent clinicians in MA 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.
