What this record shows

Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 100.0% of the total across 5 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. 5 manufacturers reported payments, led by Deciphera Pharmaceuticals Inc. at 23.2% of the total. That places this record below the midpoint for medical oncology clinicians in MA, where the typical reported total is $2,567.

Medicare billing

Part B allowed, 2024
$31,100
Medicare patients
88
Services billed
270

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.
