OpenPayments is a super cool tool. It's worth noting that some small payments can amount to things like "the drug rep came by to leave some pamphlets for the waiting room and donuts for the staff", which is how you'll occasionally find a doctor who accepted a grand total of $50 in payouts.

For the $100k+ payouts, though... hell, even the $10k+ payouts....

EDIT: Just looked up one of my doctors and it says he accepted a whole $70 last year, entirely in food and beverage lol. I hope he enjoyed the cookies or whatever it was :P
