Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

The money is spread across several categories — consulting fees (57.5%), speaking fees and travel and lodging — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 12 manufacturers reported payments, led by Boston Scientific at 26.0% of the total. Among urology clinicians in NH with any reported payments, this total sits in the top 5% — high for the specialty, which is a reason to read the composition above rather than the number alone.
