port has been made available to the Director since

H. R. 3865 
To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to deny any deduction for 
certain gifts and benefits provided to physicians by prescription drug 
manufacturers. 
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES 
FEBRUARY 26, 2004 
Mr. STARK introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Committee 
on Ways and Means 
A BILL 
To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to deny any 
deduction for certain gifts and benefits provided to physi-
cians by prescription drug manufacturers. 
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representa-
tives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, 
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE. 
This Act may be cited as the ‘‘Prescription Drug 
Safety and Affordability Act of 2004’’. 
SEC. 2. FINDINGS. 
The Congress finds that— 
(1) gifts to physicians from pharmaceutical 
companies lead to the unnecessary prescribing of
prescription drugs, inflating the costs of prescrip-
tions and jeopardizing patient safety, 
(2) 
the 
pharmaceutical 
industry 
annually 
spends $13,000,000,000 promoting and marketing 
their products, by way of meals, travel subsidies, 
and other gifts to medical professionals, 
(3) drug companies annually spend more than 
$15,000 per physician on such promotions, 
(4) the present extent of physician-industry 
interactions appears to adversely affect prescribing 
and professional behavior and should be further ad-
dressed at the level of policy and education, and 
(5) either redirecting these funds to research or 
lowering the costs of prescription drugs is a much 
more needed expenditure by the pharmaceutical in-
dustry. 
SEC. 3. DISALLOWANCE OF DEDUCTION FOR PHYSICIAN 
GIFT EXPENSES OF PRESCRIPTION DRUG 
MANUFACTURERS. 
(a) GENERAL RULE.—Part IX of subchapter B of 
chapter 1 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (relating 
to items not deductible) is amended by adding at the end
