Has Pietro Cavataio received payments from drug or device companies?

Yes. Drug and device makers reported $40,421 in general payments to Pietro Cavataio across 899 transactions between 2019–2025. Most Open Payments records nationally are meals worth under $20; a reported payment is not evidence of wrongdoing.

Does a payment mean Pietro Cavataio did something wrong?

No. Federal law requires drug and device makers to report almost every transfer of value to a physician, including a $14 sandwich at a lunch presentation. Consulting fees, research funding and royalties to device inventors are ordinary, legal parts of medicine. This site reports what was disclosed; it makes no allegation.

Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

The money is spread across several categories — speaking fees (57.4%), food and beverage and travel and lodging — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 60 manufacturers reported payments, led by Johnson & Johnson at 52.7% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $18,921 and has fallen 90.2% since, to $1,846 in 2025. Among family medicine clinicians in MI 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.
