Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

This record is dominated by consulting fees: $45,985 of the $48,056 with a category attached, or 95.7%. Daiichi Sankyo Inc. accounts for 60.1% of it on its own, with 2 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $14,800 and has fallen 81.9% since, to $2,680 in 2024. Among pediatric cardiology 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.

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

$48,056 in reported general payments places this provider in the 95th percentile of 49 pediatric cardiology providers in Washington.
