What this record shows

This record is dominated by food and beverage: $4,131 of the $4,814 with a category attached, or 85.8%. Zimmer Biomet accounts for 83.9% of it on its own, with 4 other manufacturers making up the rest. 2025 is the largest year on record at $1,951, more than ten times the $142 reported in 2019. That places this record below the midpoint for orthopaedic surgery clinicians in FL, where the typical reported total is $5,564.

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.

Medicare billing

Part B allowed, 2024
$525,244
Medicare patients
991
Services billed
21,965

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.
