Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by consulting fees: $18,585 of the $29,021 with a category attached, or 64.0%. Pfizer accounts for 64.0% of it on its own, with 8 other manufacturers making up the rest. 2024 is the largest year on record at $18,656, more than ten times the $226 reported in 2019. Among nephrology clinicians in FL 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.
