Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — consulting fees (45.3%), food and beverage and travel and lodging — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. Novartis accounts for 63.8% of it on its own, with 22 other manufacturers making up the rest. Among family clinicians in UT with any reported payments, this total sits in the top 10% — high for the specialty, which is a reason to read the composition above rather than the number alone.
Across 80 payments — averaging $66.32 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
