Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 95.9% of the total across 73 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 26 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 18.7% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations.
Across 73 payments — averaging $13.87 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
