Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

This record is dominated by consulting fees: $8,635 of the $10,005 with a category attached, or 86.3%. Merck accounts for 98.8% of it on its own, with 1 other manufacturer making up the rest. Among pediatrics clinicians in WI 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.
