How to get full, meaningful disclosure
MJA 2011; 195:(10):571
Abstract:
The world of medicine is about to take an extraordinary leap forward in transparency. In the United States, from 1 January 2012, by law, every pharmaceutical and medical device manufacturer will have to start recording every payment to every doctor. From the following year, the companies will have to hand over all that information to the government annually, and this will then be published in full.
