What this record shows

Instrumentation Laboratory Company accounts for 79.9% of it on its own, with 3 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2023 at $19,942 and has fallen 55.2% since, to $8,934 in 2025. Among emergency medicine clinicians in UT 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.

$65,691 in reported general payments places this provider in the 95th percentile of 410 emergency medicine providers in Utah.
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.
Most prescribed under Part D
| Drug | Claims | Cost to plans & patients |

| Cephalexin | 11 | $111 |
| Ondansetron OdtOndansetron | 11 | $81 |
