Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 100.0% of the total across 102 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 18 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 16.4% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $307 and has fallen 52.9% since, to $144 in 2025.
Across 102 payments — averaging $15.99 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
