What this record shows

Jazz Pharmaceuticals Inc. accounts for 75.6% of it on its own, with 8 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2023 at $14,522 and has fallen 95.2% since, to $700 in 2025.

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

$39,594 in reported general payments places this provider in the 70th percentile of 498 medical oncology providers in New York.

Medicare billing

Part B allowed, 2024
$79,365
Medicare patients
125
Services billed
894

What this is not: this is the amount Original Medicare Part B allowed for services this provider billed in 2024. It is not their income. It excludes Medicare Advantage — now more than half of all Medicare enrollment — along with Medicaid and all commercial insurance, and it is gross practice revenue before staff, rent, supplies and malpractice premiums. CMS also suppresses any figure covering ten or fewer patients, so low-volume providers appear smaller than they are.
