Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — consulting fees (53.7%), speaking fees and travel and lodging — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. Medtronic accounts for 60.8% of it on its own, with 24 other manufacturers making up the rest. Among thoracic surgery (cardiothoracic vascular surgery) clinicians in GA 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 182 payments — averaging $487.07 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
