Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 100.0% of the total across 201 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 20.4% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. 2022 is the largest year on record at $1,120, 2.2 times the $505 reported in 2019. That places this record below the midpoint for allergy & immunology clinicians in OH, where the typical reported total is $2,746.
Across 201 payments — averaging $15.76 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
