Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — speaking fees (51.1%), travel and lodging and food and beverage — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. Dexcom, Inc. accounts for 77.3% of it on its own, with 25 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2023 at $11,377 and has fallen 72.6% since, to $3,112 in 2025. Among pediatrics clinicians in OH 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 229 payments — averaging $136.08 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
