Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — consulting fees (48.4%), speaking fees and travel and lodging — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 11 manufacturers reported payments, led by BTG International Inc. at 51.4% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2020 at $380,324 and has fallen 90.3% since, to $36,789 in 2025. Among pediatric hematology-oncology clinicians in TN 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.
