October 2014
On Tuesday, the federal government released details of payments to doctors by every pharmaceutical and medical device manufacturer in the country. The information is being made public under a provision of the 2010 Affordable Care Act. The law mandates disclosure of payments to doctors, dentists, chiropractors, podiatrists and optometrists for things like promotional speaking, consulting, meals, educational items and research.
We’ve aggregated information from the websites of some large drug companies, which publish their payments as a condition of settling federal whistle-blower lawsuits alleging improper marketing or kickbacks. In cooperation with the website Pharmashine, we’ve added data for 2013, which now covers 17 drug companies accounting for half of United States drug sales that year.

What would be very informative, a way to find out what state government officials are receiving money from the pharmaceutical company lobbyist? It would give insights as to why so many state governments and pushing mandatory vaccine agendas and making exemptions harder to obtain for parents.
Hi..perhaps you can contact the site we gave you and ask them if they have that information too or where we can get it. Then let me know and I will post it.
Good idea. I will do just that and if they are helpful I will pass it onto you.
