What this record shows

It is spread thinly across 24 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 17.2% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. 2025 is the largest year on record at $1,641, 2.3 times the $718 reported in 2023.
Across 74 payments — averaging $46.70 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
