Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — speaking fees (45.2%), food and beverage and travel and lodging — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. Vericel Corporation accounts for 66.1% of it on its own, with 20 other manufacturers making up the rest. 2025 is the largest year on record at $5,311, 8.3 times the $639 reported in 2021. Among acute care clinicians in AL with any reported payments, this total sits in the top 5% — high for the specialty, which is a reason to read the composition above rather than the number alone.
Across 99 payments — averaging $127.49 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
