Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 99.5% of the total across 155 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 33 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 13.3% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $1,384 and has fallen 72.6% since, to $380 in 2025.
