Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 100.0% of the total across 109 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. 17 manufacturers reported payments, led by AbbVie at 41.8% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $630 and has fallen 92.1% since, to $50 in 2025.
Across 109 payments — averaging $15.64 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

What the payments were tied to
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.
