It's to sell a product,\" Rosen says. \"I think they'd pay the devil if no one knows and he sells a lot.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some companies that were making payments to disciplined doctors in 2010 appear to still do so, ProPublica found.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Johnson & Johnson paid Dr. Michael Reiss of New Jersey $85,000 for consulting through its pharmaceutical arm, Janssen, in December 2015. He'd just regained full use of his medical license that August; it had been suspended since 2012 because \u003ca href=\"https://www.justice.gov/archive/usao/nys/pressreleases/August11/reissmichaelpleapr.pdf\">he'd pleaded guilty\u003c/a>\u003ca href=\"https://www.justice.gov/archive/usao/nys/pressreleases/August11/reissmichaelpleapr.pdf\"> in federal court\u003c/a> to hiding $2.5 million from the IRS in Swiss bank accounts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When reached by phone, Reiss said that Janssen had performed a background check, but couldn't recall whether his disciplinary history had come up as part of his interview process. \"Apparently it wasn't an issue; they hired me,\" he said. Reiss said he is retired from practice aside from his consulting work, but declined to say what this consists of or whether he does work for Janssen or any other company.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Janssen spokeswoman Meredith Sharp says the company's contracts require doctors to have active medical licenses, and that it conducts \"additional reviews to verify eligibility\" and requires doctors to disclose changes in status. \"We are committed to working with the most qualified individuals,\" Sharp says. \"We are looking at the information you provided to determine if there is opportunity to further improve our process.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AstraZeneca paid Miltiadis Leon, a Texas physician, more than $26,000 in 2014 and 2015, mostly for speaking fees and travel expenses. In 2006, the doctor's license\u003ca href=\"https://www.propublica.org/documents/item/3027862-Miltiadis-Leon-1.html\"> was limited\u003c/a> after he was found to have sexually harassed and inappropriately touched several female patients and staff members. He was not allowed to see female patients without a chaperone for two years. Leon referred ProPublica to his attorney, who said he would speak to his client, but then did not return a call for comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement, AstraZeneca spokeswoman Abigail Bozarth said doctors with whom the company has financial relationships are reviewed both by an external organization and by the company's own compliance department. Bozarth said the process includes checks of government databases, including discipline by state medical boards, but would not respond to inquiries specifically about Leon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By contrast, drug company Eli Lilly, which was flagged by ProPublica in 2010 for paying disciplined doctors, has made only a few recent payments to doctors with disciplinary records and none to those with serious issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Spokesman Mark Taylor says the company began using a third-party vendor in 2013 to conduct background checks and screen out doctors who had faced sanctions. Doctors flagged during this process are referred to an internal committee at Eli Lilly for a final decision.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prior to these changes, the company conducted its own checks and looked exclusively at federal databases, not state-level discipline. \"So we could have been missing some actions or sanctions,\" says Taylor. This realization, he adds, \"was kind of a big 'aha' moment.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Eli Lilly now checks the licenses of all doctors the company considers for hire against federal databases and in all 50 states.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Drug maker Boehringer Ingelheim, by contrast, checks only federal databases on an annual basis. Its contracts with physicians require doctors to attest that they are in good standing with their state boards, but the company does not independently check for state-level discipline unless it has \"received information to suggest a speaker or consultant was not being truthful,\" says spokeswoman Erin Crew.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Novo Nordisk spokeswoman Marisa Sharkey describes a similar process, adding that the company checks state disciplinary databases \"as needed.\" It requires doctors to inform the company if they have been disciplined or if they are placed on a list barring them from receiving government contracts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Does your doctor accept payments from pharmaceutical and medical device companies?

It's to sell a product,\" Rosen says. \"I think they'd pay the devil if no one knows and he sells a lot.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some companies that were making payments to disciplined doctors in 2010 appear to still do so, ProPublica found.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Johnson & Johnson paid Dr. Michael Reiss of New Jersey $85,000 for consulting through its pharmaceutical arm, Janssen, in December 2015. He'd just regained full use of his medical license that August; it had been suspended since 2012 because \u003ca href=\"https://www.justice.gov/archive/usao/nys/pressreleases/August11/reissmichaelpleapr.pdf\">he'd pleaded guilty\u003c/a>\u003ca href=\"https://www.justice.gov/archive/usao/nys/pressreleases/August11/reissmichaelpleapr.pdf\"> in federal court\u003c/a> to hiding $2.5 million from the IRS in Swiss bank accounts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When reached by phone, Reiss said that Janssen had performed a background check, but couldn't recall whether his disciplinary history had come up as part of his interview process. \"Apparently it wasn't an issue; they hired me,\" he said. Reiss said he is retired from practice aside from his consulting work, but declined to say what this consists of or whether he does work for Janssen or any other company.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Janssen spokeswoman Meredith Sharp says the company's contracts require doctors to have active medical licenses, and that it conducts \"additional reviews to verify eligibility\" and requires doctors to disclose changes in status. \"We are committed to working with the most qualified individuals,\" Sharp says. \"We are looking at the information you provided to determine if there is opportunity to further improve our process.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AstraZeneca paid Miltiadis Leon, a Texas physician, more than $26,000 in 2014 and 2015, mostly for speaking fees and travel expenses. In 2006, the doctor's license\u003ca href=\"https://www.propublica.org/documents/item/3027862-Miltiadis-Leon-1.html\"> was limited\u003c/a> after he was found to have sexually harassed and inappropriately touched several female patients and staff members. He was not allowed to see female patients without a chaperone for two years. Leon referred ProPublica to his attorney, who said he would speak to his client, but then did not return a call for comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement, AstraZeneca spokeswoman Abigail Bozarth said doctors with whom the company has financial relationships are reviewed both by an external organization and by the company's own compliance department. Bozarth said the process includes checks of government databases, including discipline by state medical boards, but would not respond to inquiries specifically about Leon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By contrast, drug company Eli Lilly, which was flagged by ProPublica in 2010 for paying disciplined doctors, has made only a few recent payments to doctors with disciplinary records and none to those with serious issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Spokesman Mark Taylor says the company began using a third-party vendor in 2013 to conduct background checks and screen out doctors who had faced sanctions. Doctors flagged during this process are referred to an internal committee at Eli Lilly for a final decision.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prior to these changes, the company conducted its own checks and looked exclusively at federal databases, not state-level discipline. \"So we could have been missing some actions or sanctions,\" says Taylor. This realization, he adds, \"was kind of a big 'aha' moment.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Eli Lilly now checks the licenses of all doctors the company considers for hire against federal databases and in all 50 states.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Drug maker Boehringer Ingelheim, by contrast, checks only federal databases on an annual basis. Its contracts with physicians require doctors to attest that they are in good standing with their state boards, but the company does not independently check for state-level discipline unless it has \"received information to suggest a speaker or consultant was not being truthful,\" says spokeswoman Erin Crew.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Novo Nordisk spokeswoman Marisa Sharkey describes a similar process, adding that the company checks state disciplinary databases \"as needed.\" It requires doctors to inform the company if they have been disciplined or if they are placed on a list barring them from receiving government contracts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Does your doctor accept payments from pharmaceutical and medical device companies?

Three doctors have declared the girl brain dead based on exams and tests showing no blood flow or electrical activity in either her cerebrum or the brain stem that controls breathing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Multiple outside doctors and bioethicists observing the case have confirmed that a patient in that condition meets the legal criteria for death and has no chance of recovering.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The hospital that has sought to remove the girl from a ventilator refused to fit her with a feeding tube or a breathing tube that would help stabilize her during a move, saying it was unethical to perform medical procedures on a dead person.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Winkfield, refusing to believe her daughter is dead as long as her heart is beating, has gone to court to stop the machine from being disconnected.

The facility, where Jahi is expected to remain for some time, is run by a charitable organization that so far hasn't sought payment, Dolan said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both men refused to name the facility or reveal where it was located, saying they wanted to prevent staff members and the families of other patients from being harassed.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Dolan also addressed Jahi's physical condition. According to the San Jose Mercury News: \u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"Right now, we don't know if she's going to make it,\" said Dolan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"She's in very bad shape,\" he said. \"What I can tell you is that those examinations show that her medical condition, separate from the brain issue, is not good.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dolan's frank and sober assessment echoes a Friday legal declaration by Children's Hospital Oakland critical care pediatrician Dr. Heidi R. Flori, who opposed surgical insertion of a feeding tube because the girl's body was deteriorating.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brain-dead for 25 days, Jahi has been sustained under court order with a breathing machine and other medical interventions since complications arose after surgery to remove her tonsils and other tissue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Until Monday, she had gone without nourishment because the hospital had diagnosed her as legally and medically dead.

The coroner then released her into the custody of her mother, Nailah Winkfield, as per court order, Durand said in an email.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Friday, Alameda County Superior Court Judge Evelio Grillo said Jahi could be transferred under an agreement with Children's Hospital and the girl's mother will be held accountable for developments that could include Jahi going into cardiac arrest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Alameda County coroner's office issued a death certificate for the girl Friday but said the document is incomplete because no cause of death has been determined pending an autopsy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They may have issued one but we don't have it. We don't think she's dead,\" Dolan said. \"We got all the necessary legal paperwork in order to get Jahi out of there.\" He said the deal to move the girl came together Sunday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A court injunction prohibiting Children's Hospital from removing the ventilator that has kept Jahi's heart pumping since her Dec. 9 surgery expires at 5 p.m. Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dolan wouldn't specify where the girl was taken but he said \"they are going to care for her, respect her and love her. And they're going to call her Jahi, not 'the body.''\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He told reporters at his office in San Francisco late Sunday that the girl will be getting a feeding tube before she is transferred to a permanent facility.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dolan asked for privacy for the caregivers because the issue has raised such strong emotions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's brought out the best in people and the worst in people,\" he said. \"We've had people make threats from around the country. It's sad people act that way, so for Jahi's safety and for those around her, we will not be saying where she went or where she is.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The girl's uncle, Omari Seeley, told reporters that \"we're very grateful. We're very proud. We want to thank everyone who supported us, everyone who stood in our corner, everyone who prayed for us, everyone who donated to make this possible. Without you guys, none of this would be possible.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After spending weeks in a very public and tense fight with the hospital, Jahi's family does not plan to disclose any more about their plans for her continued care until she is resettled, her uncle, Sealey said Friday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jahi went into cardiac arrest while recovering from surgery to remove her tonsils, adenoids and uvula along with bony structures from her nose and throat and palate tissue. Three doctors have declared the girl brain dead based on exams and tests showing no blood flow or electrical activity in either her cerebrum or the brain stem that controls breathing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Multiple outside doctors and bioethicists observing the case have confirmed that a patient in that condition meets the legal criteria for death and has no chance of recovering.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The hospital that has sought to remove the girl from a ventilator refused to fit her with a feeding tube or a breathing tube that would help stabilize her during a move, saying it was unethical to perform medical procedures on a dead person.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Winkfield, refusing to believe her daughter is dead as long as her heart is beating, has gone to court to stop the machine from being disconnected. She has wanted to transfer Jahi to another facility and hoped to force Children's Hospital either to insert the tubes or to allow an outside doctor to do the procedures.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Grillo on Friday rejected the family's move to have the hospital insert the tubes, noting the girl could be moved with the ventilator and intravenous fluid lines she has now. He also refused to compel the hospital to permit an outside doctor to perform the procedures on its premises.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dolan said Friday the family had located an unaffiliated physician to put in the tubes and that an outpatient clinic in New York that treats people with traumatic brain injures has expressed willingness to care for Jahi.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hospital spokesman Sam Singer said officials were not informed where the girl was being taken.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We hope that the family finds peace in this very, very tragic story,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/news/122763/family-moves-jahi-mcmath-from-oakland-hospital","authors":["222"],"programs":["news_6944"],"tags":["news_5403","news_5401","news_5402","news_446"],"featImg":"news_122166","label":"news_6944"}},"programsReducer":{"possible":{"id":"possible","title":"Possible","info":"Possible is hosted by entrepreneur Reid Hoffman and writer Aria Finger.
