Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — speaking fees (58.7%), food and beverage and travel and lodging — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. Regeneron Healthcare Solutions, Inc. accounts for 72.9% of it on its own, with 11 other manufacturers making up the rest. 2025 is the largest year on record at $12,594, more than ten times the $499 reported in 2021. Among pediatrics clinicians in IL 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 202 payments — averaging $122.44 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
