Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by grants: $45,000 of the $53,280 with a category attached, or 84.5%. 16 manufacturers reported payments, led by Abbott at 58.0% of the total. 2025 is the largest year on record at $49,348, more than ten times the $204 reported in 2019. Among internal 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 114 payments — averaging $467.37 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
