Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by food and beverage: $2,915 of the $3,253 with a category attached, or 89.6%. It is spread thinly across 44 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 10.3% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. That places this record below the midpoint for hematology & oncology clinicians in NJ, where the typical reported total is $2,686.
Across 147 payments — averaging $22.13 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
- Gilead$335
- AstraZeneca$323
- E.r. Squibb & Sons, L.L.C.$220

- plus $2K from 38 others
What the payments were for
- Food & beverage$2,91590%
- Education$33810%
Most of this is food and beverage — typically meals provided during product presentations at a clinic or hospital. Nationally that is the single largest category of reported payments by count.
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
$3,253 in reported general payments places this provider in the 50th percentile of 362 hematology & oncology providers in New Jersey.
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 |
|---|---|---|
| Lenalidomide | 11 | $155,604 |
| Prednisone | 13 | $115 |
Paid to pharmacies, not to this prescriber.
