Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 91.6% of the total across 372 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 40 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 22.1% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Reporting peaked in 2021 at $2,898 and has fallen 97.9% since, to $62 in 2025. That places this record below the midpoint for interventional cardiology clinicians in TX, where the typical reported total is $9,094.
Across 372 payments — averaging $28.02 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
