Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — speaking fees (50.4%), travel and lodging and food and beverage — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. Gilead accounts for 93.1% of it on its own, with 12 other manufacturers making up the rest. 2025 is the largest year on record at $13,183, more than ten times the $546 reported in 2021. Among adult health clinicians in LA 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 136 payments — averaging $198.26 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

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.
How this compares
$26,964 in reported general payments places this provider in the 95th percentile of 203 adult health providers in Louisiana.
