Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by royalties or licence payments: $987,854 of the $988,011 with a category attached, or 100.0%. Arthrex accounts for 100.0% of it on its own, with 1 other manufacturer making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $546,291 and has fallen 90.2% since, to $53,415 in 2021. Among orthopaedic surgery clinicians in CA 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 11 payments — averaging $89,819 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
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.
How this compares
$988,011 in reported general payments places this provider in the 95th percentile of 1,808 orthopaedic surgery providers in California.
