Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by speaking fees: $12,140 of the $16,017 with a category attached, or 75.8%. Gilead accounts for 88.7% of it on its own, with 19 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $13,825 and has fallen 96.3% since, to $515 in 2021. Among gastroenterology clinicians in WA with any reported payments, this total sits in the top 10% — high for the specialty, which is a reason to read the composition above rather than the number alone.
Across 146 payments — averaging $109.71 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
