After talking with patients before theyleave, she v… Read more Monitoring readmissions Monitoring readmissions Read more Before they get their white coats, doctors-to-be promise alwaysto put the interest of their patients first.In return, they receive a crushing workload, an outsized helpingof societal respect and a comfortable income from tending theirpatients.But as a Nov. 28 Post-Dispatch story illustrates, manyphysicians also receive income �� sometimes in sizeable amounts ��from drug companies, medical device makers and others with lessaltruistic interests.Among them are nearly 250 doctors in the St. Louis area who receivedpayments of between $100 and more than $303,000.A national database of drug company payments to doctorstotaling more than $282 million was publicly released last month byProPublica, a nonprofit independentinvestigative reporting organization. It formed the basis of thatPost-Dispatch article.Just seven of more than 70 drug companies in thiscountry have detailed who they paid and how much those physiciansreceived. Several did so only as a result of legal action.That soon will change. The federal PatientProtection and Affordable Care Act, the health care reform bill,requires that drug company payments to doctors be disclosedbeginning in March 2013.It is legal for drug companies or medical device makers to paydoctors to consult on or promote their products. Those consultingarrangements have been viewed by doctors and medical schools as anacknowledgement of achievement and expertise.Given their bruising workload, doctors often feel they have toattend seminars sponsored by drug companies and medical devicemakers to stay up to date with new developments.Physicians, including many interviewed by Post-Dispatchreporter Cynthia Billhartz Gregorian, say drug company money doesnot cloud their clinical judgments.But we've learned in recent years that drug and device makersmanipulated studies, ghost-wrote scholarly articles signed byprominent doctors and withheld safety information Swarovski Charms Sale.At the very least, the existence of and the size of some feespaid by drug companies raise serious questions about whoseinterests doctors are putting first.The intersection of money and medicine can be adangerous place for some patients.In October, Post-Dispatch business writer Jim Doylereported that Earth City-based drug maker Forest Laboratoriespleaded guilty to federal criminal charges andagreed to pay more than $300 million in criminal and civil chargesto settle the case. It still faces at least 48 wrongful deathsuits.Federal regulators said that Forest Laboratories illegally promoted two ofits products, the antidepressants Celexa and Lexapro, for use inadolescents �� even though the Food and Drug Administration hadn'testablished that they were safe or effective in patients thatyoung. The company also withheld results of a study showing anincreased risk of suicide in depressed kids given Celexa.It's illegal for drug companies to market their products foruses not approved by the FDA. But once drugs are on the market,doctors can prescribe them any way they see fit.From 1999 to 2006, Forest paid more than$750,000 to Jeffrey Bostic, a widely respected Harvardphysician. Of the more than 350 presentations he gave to doctors,many addressed the use of Celexa and Lexapro on children. He alsomet with individual doctors to ease concerns about using the drugsin kids.Dr. Bostic hasn't faced charges or discipline for his role. ButProPublica found hundreds of doctors who continued receiving drugcompany payments after facing disciplinary action. Among themwas a Pennsylvania doctor whom the FDA ordered to stop making��false and misleading�� sales presentations about prescriptiondrugs.Clearly, public disclosure of payments from drug companies andmedical device makers is a good first step. But it is notenough.Medical schools and hospitals should examine their policiesabout such payments. Otherwise, they may find themselves named inlawsuits by injured patients claiming they failed to oversee theirphysician staff Swarovski Rings Sale.In a perfect world, doctors wo |
