Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by food and beverage: $3,672 of the $4,174 with a category attached, or 88.0%. It is spread thinly across 19 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 17.3% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Among hospitalist clinicians in WI 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.
Across 102 payments — averaging $40.92 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
- AstraZeneca$720
- ZOLL Services LLC (a/k/a ZOLL Lifecor Corp)$675
- Kestra Medical Technology Services, Inc.$393
- Heartflow, Inc.$320
- Abbott$318
- ZOLL Circulation Inc$226
- plus $2K from 13 others
Across 1 payment — averaging $1900.00 each. Payments tied to a research study. These frequently flow through the physician to a hospital or research institution rather than to the physician personally.
- Pfizer$2K

- Food & beverage$3,67288%
- Education$50212%
