Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by food and beverage: $1,372 of the $1,727 with a category attached, or 79.5%. It is spread thinly across 11 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 20.3% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Reporting peaked in 2023 at $475 and has fallen 58.3% since, to $198 in 2024.
Across 28 payments — averaging $61.66 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

General payments by program year
Who reported the general payments

What the payments were tied to
Products named in the reported payments. Only payments of $100 or more are attributed here — the typical reported payment nationally is a meal worth about $16, and listing those product-by-product would be noise.
