Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by consulting fees: $20,700 of the $26,186 with a category attached, or 79.1%. Mirum Pharmaceuticals, Inc. accounts for 93.2% of it on its own, with 15 other manufacturers making up the rest. 2025 is the largest year on record at $15,282, more than ten times the $137 reported in 2019. Among pediatric gastroenterology clinicians in TX 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.
