Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by consulting fees: $4,550 of the $7,547 with a category attached, or 60.3%. Regeneron accounts for 62.1% of it on its own, with 4 other manufacturers making up the rest. 2025 is the largest year on record at $4,685, more than ten times the $75 reported in 2019. Among otolaryngology clinicians in MA with any reported payments, this total sits in the top 10% — high for the specialty, which is a reason to read the composition above rather than the number alone.
Across 17 payments — averaging $443.94 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
