Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — speaking fees (27.1%), consulting fees and travel and lodging — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 23 manufacturers reported payments, led by Phadia AB at 46.5% of the total. Among pediatrics clinicians in IL 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 157 payments — averaging $94.61 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
