Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 100.0% of the total across 56 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. 23 manufacturers reported payments, led by AOP Health US, LLC at 26.9% of the total. Among family clinicians in CA 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 56 payments — averaging $71.47 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
