Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by consulting fees: $90,000 of the $90,085 with a category attached, or 99.9%. Kedplasma LLC accounts for 99.9% of it on its own, with 5 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $30,010 and has fallen 99.9% since, to $37 in 2024. Among internal medicine clinicians in SC 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 41 payments — averaging $2197.20 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

How this compares
$90,085 in reported general payments places this provider in the 95th percentile of 1,498 internal medicine providers in South Carolina.
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.
