If you are writing for publications, the rates will vary by publication, as
will the promptness of payment, from pay on acceptance to pay on publication
(the former is better). You will need to contact the individual publications to
learn their rates and payment terms. Yes, that would include government
agencies.
However, if you are marketing direct to doctors, distributors, or government
agencies, I really don't know what to tell you, as this is something I've not
heard of before. But I will be willing to learn along with you. <g>
