Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by consulting fees: $12,643 of the $12,643 with a category attached, or 100.0%. GSK accounts for 63.3% of it on its own, with 2 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2021 at $6,700 and has fallen 71.0% since, to $1,943 in 2024. Among internal medicine 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.
