What this record shows
This record is dominated by food and beverage: $1,464 of the $2,124 with a category attached, or 68.9%. 23 manufacturers reported payments, led by Cranial Technologies, Inc at 24.6% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $600 and has fallen 64.8% since, to $211 in 2025. Among pediatrics clinicians in GA 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.
Across 74 payments — averaging $28.71 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
