What this record shows
This record is dominated by travel and lodging: $4,953 of the $7,505 with a category attached, or 66.0%. 6 manufacturers reported payments, led by Chiesi USA, Inc. at 41.0% of the total. 2025 is the largest year on record at $4,244, more than ten times the $289 reported in 2019.
