Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Medtronic accounts for 71.8% of it on its own, with 21 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $3,069 and has fallen 88.9% since, to $340 in 2024. Among pediatrics clinicians in IA 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.
Across 98 payments — averaging $40.16 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

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.
