Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — gifts (42.9%), food and beverage and travel and lodging — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 16 manufacturers reported payments, led by A-dec, Inc. at 32.6% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2023 at $6,572 and has fallen 87.6% since, to $812 in 2025. Among general practice clinicians in NY with any reported payments, this total sits in the top 5% — high for the specialty, which is a reason to read the composition above rather than the number alone.
Across 165 payments — averaging $86.26 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
