Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 91.7% of the total across 80 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 22 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 19.3% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. That places this record below the midpoint for urology clinicians in NY, where the typical reported total is $2,467.
Across 80 payments — averaging $17.84 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
