Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — speaking fees (48.4%), consulting fees and travel and lodging — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. Medtronic accounts for 73.6% of it on its own, with 17 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $32,941 and has fallen 82.3% since, to $5,845 in 2025. Among pediatric cardiology clinicians in CA 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 187 payments — averaging $490.13 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
