Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by food and beverage: $3,728 of the $6,199 with a category attached, or 60.1%. It is spread thinly across 20 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 23.0%. Reporting peaked in 2021 at $2,341 and has fallen 79.4% since, to $482 in 2025. Among surgical clinicians in NY with any reported payments, this total sits in the top 5% — high for the specialty, which is a reason to read the composition above rather than the number alone.
Across 83 payments — averaging $74.69 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

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
$6,199 in reported general payments places this provider in the 95th percentile of 1,544 surgical providers in New York.
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.
