Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — food and beverage (40.1%), speaking fees and consulting fees — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. AbbVie accounts for 72.1% of it on its own, with 24 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $9,824 and has fallen 91.6% since, to $824 in 2025. Among plastic surgery clinicians in UT 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 211 payments — averaging $96.13 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
