Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — food and beverage (55.9%), travel and lodging and gifts — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 24 manufacturers reported payments, led by Intuitive Surgical at 56.3% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2024 at $1,480 and has fallen 79.8% since, to $298 in 2025. Among obstetrics & gynecology clinicians in NY with any reported payments, this total sits in the top 10% — high for the specialty, which is a reason to read the composition above rather than the number alone.
Across 104 payments — averaging $48.89 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
