Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

The money is spread across several categories — food and beverage (54.0%), travel and lodging and education — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 6 manufacturers reported payments, led by Straumann USA LLC at 51.6% of the total. 2025 is the largest year on record at $3,883, more than ten times the $122 reported in 2019. Among oral and maxillofacial surgery clinicians in WA with any reported payments, this total sits in the top 10% — high for the specialty, which is a reason to read the composition above rather than the number alone.

Medicare billing

Part B allowed, 2024

$9,553

Medicare patients

Services billed

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
Amoxicillin	158	$619
Ibuprofen	174	$492
Hydrocodone-AcetaminophenHydrocodone/Acetaminophen	129	$424
