Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — consulting fees (44.4%), speaking fees and royalties or licence payments — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 30 manufacturers reported payments, led by Globus Medical at 36.6% of the total. Among hand surgery clinicians in PA 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 326 payments — averaging $904.86 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

- Pacira Pharmaceuticals Incorporated$40K

How this compares
$294,985 in reported general payments places this provider in the 95th percentile of 110 hand surgery providers in Pennsylvania.
Medicare billing
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.

| Naproxen | 206 | $700 |
