Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

This record is dominated by speaking fees: $297,157 of the $491,015 with a category attached, or 60.5%. AbbVie accounts for 100.0% of it on its own, with 3 other manufacturers making up the rest. Among plastic surgery clinicians in NV 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.
