Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by food and beverage: $6,359 of the $7,442 with a category attached, or 85.4%. 20 manufacturers reported payments, led by Amgen at 36.9% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $3,186 and has fallen 56.8% since, to $1,377 in 2025. Among family clinicians in KY 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.
Across 356 payments — averaging $20.90 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

Products named in the reported payments. Only payments of $100 or more are attributed here — the typical reported payment nationally is a meal worth about $16, and listing those product-by-product would be noise.
