Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by food and beverage: $3,044 of the $3,395 with a category attached, or 89.7%. It is spread thinly across 22 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 20.0% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $773 and has fallen 51.6% since, to $374 in 2025. Among adolescent medicine clinicians in NY 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 136 payments — averaging $24.96 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
