Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by food and beverage: $3,602 of the $4,004 with a category attached, or 90.0%. 14 manufacturers reported payments, led by Johnson & Johnson at 28.1% of the total. 2025 is the largest year on record at $2,401, 6.8 times the $354 reported in 2023. Among primary care clinicians in MI 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 190 payments — averaging $21.07 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.
