Financial relationships between dermatologists and industry are prevalent and may have implications for patient care. To analyze reported industry payments made to dermatologists, we performed a retrospective analysis of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Open Payments database (OPD) from January 1, 2017, to December 31, 2021. During this 5-year period, a total of $278 million in industry payments were made to dermatologists. It is important for all dermatologists to review their public profiles in the OPD to confirm the reported payments are accurate.
皮肤科医生与行业之间的财务关系普遍存在，可能会对患者护理产生影响。为了分析报告的行业向皮肤科医生支付的款项，我们对医疗保险和医疗补助服务中心（Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services）的公开支付数据库（Open Payments database，OPD）进行了回顾性分析，时间范围为 2017 年 1 月 1 日至 2021 年 12 月 31 日。在这 5 年期间，共向皮肤科医生支付了 2.78 亿美元的行业款项。所有皮肤科医生都有必要审查他们在 OPD 中的公开资料，以确认报告的款项是否准确。
