Professors at the University of Wisconsin medical school are appalled at the voyeuristic ways of Charles Grassley.
Some of the orthopedic surgeons [who make enormous outside sums pushing medical devices] also were among the most vocal opponents to the university’s new disclosure requirements, referring to the more stringent disclosure requirements as voyeuristic.
In the past, they and other doctors who earned large sums working as consultants, speakers or from royalties could merely state that they received more than $20,000 without having to tell their patients or the university the actual amount.
It’s only appropriate that we not tell you the actual amount. Only a sicko would want to see the actual amount.
