Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — consulting fees (44.4%), speaking fees and food and beverage — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 5 manufacturers reported payments, led by Bayer at 38.7% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $6,057 and has fallen 94.4% since, to $336 in 2025. Among pediatric radiology clinicians in CA with any reported payments, this total sits in the top 10% — high for the specialty, which is a reason to read the composition above rather than the number alone.
Across 34 payments — averaging $449.10 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
