Are you an orthopedic surgeon who provided consulting to medical device companies? Now you can check out how your consulting earnings stack up to those of your colleagues.
Based on an investigation settlement, major device companies were required to post how much they paid to
orthopedic surgeons for consulting services. Wall Street Journal’s
Health Blog posted the links to the company websites disclosing payment sums:
Stryker Consulting Payments (check out Richard Harrison Rothman in Philly)
J&J’s DePuy must have deep pockets because several orthos earned almost 3 million dollars in consulting fees (PDF file)
Biomet (check out Adolph V. Lombardi)
Smith & Nephew (check out Richard Laskin)
Many of these surgeons earned tens of thousands of dollars in
consulting fees, but some received hundreds of thousands of dollars,
and a few earned over a million (there was one ortho who earned almost
3 million dollars in consulting fees).
