Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — royalties or licence payments (48.1%), other and consulting fees — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. Medtronic accounts for 70.7% of it on its own, with 8 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $235,783 and has fallen 95.7% since, to $10,161 in 2025. Among orthopaedic surgery 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 114 payments — averaging $4003.27 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
