Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 98.9% of the total across 231 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 18 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 18.4% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $1,802 and has fallen 56.7% since, to $781 in 2021.
Across 231 payments — averaging $13.94 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
