Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by food and beverage: $4,138 of the $5,436 with a category attached, or 76.1%. 15 manufacturers reported payments, led by Boston Scientific at 44.0% of the total. Among physical medicine & rehabilitation clinicians in TX 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.
Across 91 payments — averaging $59.74 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

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.
Most prescribed under Part D
| Drug | Claims | Cost to plans & patients |
|---|---|---|
| Gabapentin | 63 | $567 |
| Baclofen | 30 | $340 |
| Pregabalin | 11 | $160 |
| Tizanidine Hcl | 11 | $126 |
