Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 99.1% of the total across 90 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 38 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 12.2% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Reporting peaked in 2021 at $842 and has fallen 96.0% since, to $34 in 2024. That places this record below the midpoint for hematology & oncology clinicians in MS, where the typical reported total is $9,632.
