Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — grants (56.7%), travel and lodging and food and beverage — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 21 manufacturers reported payments, led by Abbott at 32.0% of the total. 2025 is the largest year on record at $13,405, more than ten times the $338 reported in 2021. That places this record below the midpoint for clinical cardiac electrophysiology clinicians in IL, where the typical reported total is $24,482.
Across 135 payments — averaging $196.03 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
