For the past five years, Coon Rapids cardiologist Dr. Jeffrey Chambers has led a nationwide study that found doctors could safely use a Minnesota-made medical device to drill out hardened calcium in clogged arteries around the heart. A report of the study’s results published last year disclosed that Chambers was a paid consultant. Federal data published last week reveal the extent of those payments — $296,000 in 2014 from New Brighton-based Cardiovascular Systems, Inc. It was among the highest such totals in the state. http:...

The change is a major coup for small businesses and the Minnesota Chamber of Commerce, which l...
