Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 99.6% of the total across 250 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. 17 manufacturers reported payments, led by AstraZeneca at 25.5% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $2,176 and has fallen 96.1% since, to $84 in 2021. Among family medicine clinicians in IA 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 250 payments — averaging $15.62 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

What the payments were tied to
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.
