Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by speaking fees: $451,801 of the $663,278 with a category attached, or 68.1%. Medtronic accounts for 66.1% of it on its own, with 17 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2024 at $182,972 and has fallen 60.5% since, to $72,234 in 2025. Among pediatric cardiology clinicians in PA 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 866 payments — averaging $765.91 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
