Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 97.0% of the total across 108 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. 23 manufacturers reported payments, led by ZOLL Services LLC (a/k/a ZOLL Lifecor Corp) at 28.2% of the total. Among acute care clinicians in MI with any reported payments, this total sits in the top 10% — high for the specialty, which is a reason to read the composition above rather than the number alone.
Across 108 payments — averaging $30.51 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

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.
