Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by speaking fees: $18,250 of the $21,313 with a category attached, or 85.6%. AbbVie accounts for 91.3% of it on its own, with 16 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $11,647 and has fallen 99.9% since, to $16 in 2025. Among gastroenterology clinicians in OK with any reported payments, this total sits in the top 10% — high for the specialty, which is a reason to read the composition above rather than the number alone.
Across 203 payments — averaging $104.99 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
