Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 96.5% of the total across 93 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. It is spread thinly across 21 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 20.9% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. 2023 is the largest year on record at $646, 2.3 times the $276 reported in 2019. That places this record below the midpoint for dermatology clinicians in TN, where the typical reported total is $3,452.
Across 93 payments — averaging $24.64 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
