Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by ownership interests: $1,221,439 of the $1,225,581 with a category attached, or 99.7%. Boston Scientific accounts for 100.0% of it on its own, with 1 other manufacturer making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $1,083,873 and has fallen 100.0% since, to $30 in 2024. Among interventional pain medicine 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 9 payments — averaging $136,176 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

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.
