Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 100.0% of the total across 119 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 25 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 15.9% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations.
Across 119 payments — averaging $14.00 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
- Boehringer Ingelheim$264
- Novo Nordisk$220
- Amgen$168
- Pfizer$133
- GSK$122
