Paying Docs

Is it true that the stryker distributors will slip high volume MD's some money under the table? I suspect this is taking place in several areas.

 

how'd you know!!! Ssssh, don't tell anyone. You think we would openly admit it on a posting board like this? You're so f'n stupid, you don't even know that Stryker hardly has any distributors you a$$ clown. Most of our business is direct

 

Gee, are you talking about the largest ortho distributorship in the US based in the Southeast?

 

Specifically South Florida?

 

I heard first class flights, $3500 meal tab for 9 people. way over the limit!!!!!!! What ever happend to coach fare

 

Stryker does not play by any rules, they do what they want to lock up the business. I'm jealous we don't have that business model.

Shut up.......do you ALWAYS drive the speed limit....my friends in finance and commercial RE spends $10s of thousands on bringing on new clients....no biggie.

 

It is because of idiots like you that we have compliance training once a year. Jerkoff

 

no one is paying off more docs than Encore/DJO is in South Florida. Not sure how they have not been investigated as of yet. I overheard one of their guys straight offer cash outside of the OR for a case.

 

Is DJO where Mike Mogul went as CEO after Stryker?

 

Same thing going on in South Texas..

 

And chicago! It's unreal the shit you assholes are pulling and think no one knows... It will catch up to you soon enough!

 

please elaborate.

 

Zimmer Depuy the worst. Elaborate on that.

 

Biomet too-they all have their ways to take care of docs. Under-and on top-of the table

 

big reason why Biomet is moving back on top right now and probably paying the "new" reps they have been getting from other companies they have market share with to convert over

 

What's new, Who cares? Now do you question doctors ethics and decision making process with you and your families surgical needs?

 

Of course I do--you don't? how many doctors have hyped an implant only to have it pulled off the market shortly thereafter? I can name a few recent--Metal on Metal--Otismed and the list goes on. Wake up and open your eyes. Blind trust is just stupid. Did you ever hear of unnecessary surgery?

 

As someone who's been in the business for awhile, I can say with a fair amount of confidence that none of the big 4 are really engaged in pay for play, like in the past. Smaller shops out there are certainly playing fast and loose, though.
