Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 100.0% of the total across 11 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 9 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 16.6% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. That places this record below the midpoint for hematology & oncology clinicians in OR, where the typical reported total is $847.
Across 11 payments — averaging $24.40 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
- Jazz Pharmaceuticals Inc.$45
- AbbVie$44
- Bristol Myers Squibb$35
- Taiho Oncology, Inc.$29
- Gilead$28
- Ipsen Biopharmaceuticals, Inc$24
- plus $64 from 3 others
Across 1 payment — averaging $3461.41 each. Payments tied to a research study. These frequently flow through the physician to a hospital or research institution rather than to the physician personally.

How this compares
$268 in reported general payments places this provider in the 35th percentile of 112 hematology & oncology providers in Oregon.
Medicare billing
What this is not: this is the amount Original Medicare Part B allowed for services this provider billed in 2024. It is not their income. It excludes Medicare Advantage — now more than half of all Medicare enrollment — along with Medicaid and all commercial insurance, and it is gross practice revenue before staff, rent, supplies and malpractice premiums. CMS also suppresses any figure covering ten or fewer patients, so low-volume providers appear smaller than they are.
