Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

This record is dominated by consulting fees: $637,657 of the $659,362 with a category attached, or 96.7%. 7 manufacturers reported payments, led by Mesoblast, Inc. at 52.5% of the total. 2025 is the largest year on record at $416,781, more than ten times the $5,214 reported in 2022. Among infectious disease clinicians in MD 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.
