Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 99.0% of the total across 56 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. It is spread thinly across 20 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 16.2% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. 2025 is the largest year on record at $541, 2.8 times the $190 reported in 2019.
Across 56 payments — averaging $28.38 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
- Regeneron Healthcare Solutions, Inc.$257
- AstraZeneca$250
- Chiesi USA, Inc.$174
- Alcresta Therapeutics, Inc.$171
- Baxter Healthcare$129
- Philips North America LLC$85
- plus $522 from 14 others
Across 18 payments — averaging $2348.56 each. Payments tied to a research study. These frequently flow through the physician to a hospital or research institution rather than to the physician personally.
- Gilead$42K
What the payments were for
- Food & beverage$1,57399%
- Education$171%
Most of this is food and beverage — typically meals provided during product presentations at a clinic or hospital. Nationally that is the single largest category of reported payments by count.
General payments by program year
Who reported the general payments
Companies are grouped under their corporate parent — a single manufacturer often files under several CMS reporting entities. Research and ownership payments are counted separately and are not in this table.

What the payments were tied to
Products named in the reported payments. Only payments of $100 or more are attributed here — the typical reported payment nationally is a meal worth about $16, and listing those product-by-product would be noise.
How this compares
Too few pediatric pulmonology providers in South Carolinato place this figure against a meaningful peer group, so we don't.
