My best friend is a surgeon and he’s taken me with him on several trips/outings paid for by drug reps and medical device salesmen. Golf, guided fishing trips, courtside NBA seats, etc

ETA He hasn’t been handed cash or told he will get abc if he does xyz, but it’s kinda understood

Name one industry that doesn’t have indirect kickbacks??

There are a lot of ‘scratch my back I will scratch yours’ deals out there in just about every single industry.

You haven’t done this in at least 10-15 years. All of that shite has been banned for years now.

If this is true at best your friend is a scumbag and he's probably breaking the law.

Truth!

I have intimate knowledge of something similar. Company ABC "hires" Doctor X as it's "medical director". Doctor X gets a check every month, but really has no duties. Doctor X understands where the referrals are to be directed.
