Many MDs take money or perks from pharmaceutical companies for prescribing the pharma's drug to their patients. You can find out if your own MD has taken money and how much. "All you have to do is type a practitioner’s name into the search bar. The website will break down which companies have paid that practitioner. It will also expose the nature of the payments. Was the payment a consulting fee or a research fee? Or was the payment for travel and lodging expenses or grants?" Here's URL for site: Search Physicians - Open Payments Data - CMS More info on it here: This Is How Much 'Big Pharma' Is Paying Your Doctor! - David Avocado Wolfe I found my primary MD took $250.00 in 2015 (latest year). This site also allows you to research how much money colleges and universities take from the pharmas.
