Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by royalties or licence payments: $2,593,852 of the $2,635,348 with a category attached, or 98.4%. Stryker accounts for 100.0% of it on its own, with 1 other manufacturer making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $845,692 and has fallen 73.5% since, to $224,394 in 2022. Among orthopaedic surgery clinicians in OH 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 156 payments — averaging $16,893 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

What the payments were tied to
