Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by consulting fees: $61,403 of the $79,545 with a category attached, or 77.2%. Baxter Healthcare accounts for 77.6% of it on its own, with 7 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2024 at $32,184 and has fallen 57.7% since, to $13,603 in 2025. Among pediatrics 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 363 payments — averaging $219.13 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
