Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 97.7% of the total across 209 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. It is spread thinly across 20 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 21.4% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Reporting peaked in 2021 at $1,780 and has fallen 92.7% since, to $130 in 2022. That places this record below the midpoint for gastroenterology clinicians in TX, where the typical reported total is $3,104.

Who reported the general payments

Companies are grouped under their corporate parent — a single manufacturer often files under several CMS reporting entities. Research and ownership payments are counted separately and are not in this table.

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

$3,808 in reported general payments places this provider in the 50th percentile of 1,350 gastroenterology providers in Texas.
