Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 100.0% of the total across 101 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. 26 manufacturers reported payments, led by AbbVie at 48.5% of the total. 2025 is the largest year on record at $481, 6.3 times the $77 reported in 2019. Among pediatrics clinicians in TX 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 101 payments — averaging $22.81 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
