Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — speaking fees (49.1%), food and beverage and travel and lodging — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 30 manufacturers reported payments, led by EMD Serono, Inc. at 56.4% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $8,681 and has fallen 99.8% since, to $20 in 2025. Among family medicine clinicians in PA 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 451 payments — averaging $31.68 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
