Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

This record is dominated by speaking fees: $110,788 of the $139,505 with a category attached, or 79.4%. Medtronic accounts for 98.1% of it on its own, with 7 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $70,082 and has fallen 99.6% since, to $268 in 2025. Among urology clinicians in MN 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.
