What this record shows

L. Gore & Associates, Inc. at 25.0% of the total. 2025 is the largest year on record at $8,046, more than ten times the $319 reported in 2022.
Across 169 payments — averaging $63.37 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
