Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 92.1% of the total across 79 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. 19 manufacturers reported payments, led by AbbVie at 25.2% of the total. 2025 is the largest year on record at $1,697, 2.7 times the $623 reported in 2023. That places this record below the midpoint for gastroenterology clinicians in FL, where the typical reported total is $3,025.
