Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by speaking fees: $187,390 of the $261,754 with a category attached, or 71.6%. Novartis accounts for 61.8% of it on its own, with 7 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $214,875 and has fallen 100.0% since, to $36 in 2025. Among rheumatology 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.

What the payments were tied to
Products named in the reported payments. Only payments of $100 or more are attributed here — the typical reported payment nationally is a meal worth about $16, and listing those product-by-product would be noise.
