Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 96.4% of the total across 37 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 24 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 13.8% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. That places this record below the midpoint for orthopaedic surgery clinicians in FL, where the typical reported total is $5,564.
Across 37 payments — averaging $121.82 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
