Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

This record is dominated by speaking fees: $548,600 of the $639,821 with a category attached, or 85.7%. Mallinckrodt Hospital Products Inc. accounts for 81.0% of it on its own, with 10 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $162,765 and has fallen 79.2% since, to $33,908 in 2025. Among pulmonary disease 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.

Who reported the general payments

Companies are grouped under their corporate parent — a single manufacturer often files under several CMS reporting entities. Research and ownership payments are counted separately and are not in this table.

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.

How this compares

$639,821 in reported general payments places this provider in the 95th percentile of 571 pulmonary disease providers in Ohio.
