Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by other: $108,811 of the $111,018 with a category attached, or 98.0%. Boston Scientific accounts for 98.0% of it on its own, with 27 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2021 at $53,918 and has fallen 99.4% since, to $317 in 2025. Among pediatrics 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 131 payments — averaging $847.46 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
