Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 100.0% of the total across 37 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. AbbVie accounts for 62.5% of it on its own, with 8 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $166 and has fallen 87.6% since, to $21 in 2025. Among emergency medicine clinicians in OH 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
$55,457
Medicare patients
287
Services billed
528

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.
