Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 99.1% of the total across 155 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. 19 manufacturers reported payments, led by Medtronic at 43.0% of the total. That places this record below the midpoint for cardiovascular disease clinicians in FL, where the typical reported total is $2,774.
Across 155 payments — averaging $19.15 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
