Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 100.0% of the total across 87 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. 20 manufacturers reported payments, led by Corium, LLC at 27.7% of the total. 2025 is the largest year on record at $419, 3.9 times the $108 reported in 2019. Among pediatrics clinicians in AR 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 87 payments — averaging $18.22 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
