Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — food and beverage (54.6%), travel and lodging and speaking fees — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. Axonics, Inc. accounts for 66.1% of it on its own, with 19 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $2,141 and has fallen 98.6% since, to $29 in 2023. That places this record below the midpoint for urology clinicians in MD, where the typical reported total is $4,190.
Across 101 payments — averaging $40.03 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
