Virtually all U.S. doctors accept money, freebies from drug companies

---

Omschrijving
Nearly every doctor in the United States accepts gifts of some sort from pharmaceutical companies, but in many cases there is no benefit to patients, according to a study published in the New England Journal of Medicine. Researchers surveyed 1,662 U.S. doctors and found that 94 percent of them reported "some type of relationship with the pharmaceutical industry." Eighty-three percent of respondents reported receiving gifts of food at work, and 78 percent reported receiving free drug samples. More than 33 percent of doctors reported receiving monetary payments from drug companies in exchange for attending medical meetings, giving lectures or signing up patients to participate in drug tests.
