Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — speaking fees (26.3%), food and beverage and education — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 20 manufacturers reported payments, led by In2bones USA, LLC at 31.2% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $2,534 and has fallen 70.2% since, to $754 in 2025. Among podiatrist clinicians in PA 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 88 payments — averaging $86.57 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

How this compares
$7,619 in reported general payments places this provider in the 90th percentile of 445 podiatrist providers in Pennsylvania.
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.
