Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — food and beverage (42.8%), grants and travel and lodging — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 20 manufacturers reported payments, led by Medtronic at 32.2% of the total. 2025 is the largest year on record at $4,651, more than ten times the $189 reported in 2020. That places this record below the midpoint for orthopaedic surgery of the spine clinicians in AZ, where the typical reported total is $49,864.
Across 77 payments — averaging $140.11 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
