Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 98.3% of the total across 74 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 9.8% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Reporting peaked in 2021 at $629 and has fallen 96.8% since, to $20 in 2024. That places this record below the midpoint for hematology & oncology clinicians in LA, where the typical reported total is $4,451.
