Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

The money is spread across several categories — consulting fees (55.1%), speaking fees and travel and lodging — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 7 manufacturers reported payments, led by Merck at 35.8% of the total. Among pediatrics clinicians in PA 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.

What the payments were tied to

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.
