Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — speaking fees (45.5%), consulting fees and travel and lodging — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 31 manufacturers reported payments, led by Lilly USA, LLC at 51.7% of the total. Among dermatology 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 710 payments — averaging $252.94 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
