Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — consulting fees (47.6%), travel and lodging and food and beverage — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. Every reported general payment came from a single manufacturer, GE HealthCare. 2025 is the largest year on record at $3,531, more than ten times the $15 reported in 2022. Among diagnostic radiology clinicians in WA 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 29 payments — averaging $155.91 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
- GE HealthCare$5K
Across 18 payments — averaging $14,667 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.
- Philips North America LLC$264K
What the payments were for
- Consulting fees$2,15048%
- Travel & lodging$1,38931%
- Food & beverage$98222%
General payments by program year
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.
| Company | Payments | Total |
|---|---|---|
| GE HealthCare | 29 | $4,521 |
How this compares
$4,521 in reported general payments places this provider in the 95th percentile of 772 diagnostic radiology providers in Washington.
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.
