Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by food and beverage: $9,547 of the $11,594 with a category attached, or 82.3%. 21 manufacturers reported payments, led by Medtronic at 35.8% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $4,825 and has fallen 72.2% since, to $1,343 in 2025. Among family 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.
Across 125 payments — averaging $92.75 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
