Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by food and beverage: $17,951 of the $20,951 with a category attached, or 85.7%. It is spread thinly across 35 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 10.2% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Among physician assistant 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.
Across 857 payments — averaging $24.45 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
