Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by food and beverage: $1,920 of the $2,346 with a category attached, or 81.8%. It is spread thinly across 21 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 18.2% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Reporting peaked in 2021 at $638 and has fallen 57.3% since, to $273 in 2025. Among acute care clinicians in MI 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 73 payments — averaging $32.14 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

Products named in the reported payments. Only payments of $100 or more are attributed here — the typical reported payment nationally is a meal worth about $16, and listing those product-by-product would be noise.
