Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 99.6% of the total across 65 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 20.8% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $1,199 and has fallen 98.2% since, to $22 in 2022.
Across 65 payments — averaging $22.47 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
