What this record shows

Mckesson Corporation accounts for 99.5% of it on its own, with 1 other manufacturer making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $177,331 and has fallen 86.5% since, to $23,856 in 2025. Among trauma surgery clinicians in AZ 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.

What the payments were tied to
