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 |
|---|---|---|
| Abbott | 566 | $5,045 |
| Nalu Medical, Inc. | 69 | $801 |
| Saluda Medical Americas, Inc. | 1 | $30 |
| Vertos Medical, Inc. | 1 | $25 |
| Pacira Pharmaceuticals Incorporated | 1 | $24 |
| Nevro Corp. | 1 | $22 |
| Boston Scientific | 1 | $17 |
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
$5,964 in reported general payments places this provider in the 95th percentile of 15,456 family providers in Texas.
