Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 100.0% of the total across 120 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. It is spread thinly across 28 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 15.6% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $607 and has fallen 67.8% since, to $195 in 2023.
