What this record shows

It is spread thinly across 28 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 14.0% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations.
Across 150 payments — averaging $20.80 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
