What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — travel and lodging (39.9%), education and food and beverage — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 7 manufacturers reported payments, led by Arthrex at 47.3% of the total. 2024 is the largest year on record at $1,358, more than ten times the $37 reported in 2019.
Across 30 payments — averaging $101.64 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

General payments by program year
Who reported the general payments

How this compares
$3,049 in reported general payments places this provider in the 70th percentile of 311 sports medicine 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.
Most prescribed under Part D
| Drug | Claims | Cost to plans & patients |
|---|---|---|
| Meloxicam | 219 | $821 |
| Celecoxib | 13 | $300 |
Paid to pharmacies, not to this prescriber.
