Grassley Points To Another Academic Doctor's Industry Pay
..... Companies that made payments such as consulting and speaking fees to Wang included medical-device makers Medtronic and FzioMed and the DePuy unit of Johnson & Johnson. Grassley says Wang “consistently checked no” on UCLA disclosure forms when asked whether he had received income of $500 or more from companies funding his clinical research. All three companies were sponsoring research by Wang at the time of the payments, WSJ reports. Grassley says UCLA told him that Wang “erred in completing” the disclosures. .....Erred? In completing the disclosures?
This goes back to our prima facia contention that:
1: These people are too Stupid to retain a physician's license.
2: They're Not too stupid, they're far Worse.
And before anyone is tempted to equate these sorts of non disclosed highjinks in medicine with those in the banking and securities sector:
Being Robbed, even of your life savings, is Not on the same footing with being Dead, due to Medical Money Acey Duecy.
Once again: Thank You Senator Grassley.
