Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — royalties or licence payments (49.0%), other and consulting fees — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. Medtronic accounts for 91.0% of it on its own, with 8 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2021 at $1,151,395 and has fallen 74.5% since, to $293,741 in 2025. Among orthopaedic surgery of the spine clinicians in CA 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.
