Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 98.8% of the total across 164 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. 19 manufacturers reported payments, led by Ironshore Pharmaceuticals Inc. at 24.2% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $636 and has fallen 54.2% since, to $291 in 2025. Among pediatrics clinicians in TX 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 164 payments — averaging $17.55 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
