Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

This record is dominated by education: $19,088 of the $22,298 with a category attached, or 85.6%. Intuitive Surgical accounts for 96.8% of it on its own, with 5 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2021 at $13,789 and has fallen 88.6% since, to $1,574 in 2025. Among colon & rectal surgery clinicians in VA 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.

Who reported the general payments

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.

Medicare billing

Part B allowed, 2024
$114,210
Medicare patients
282
Services billed
659

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.
