Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

This record is dominated by speaking fees: $19,153 of the $25,076 with a category attached, or 76.4%. Medtronic accounts for 91.8% of it on its own, with 10 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $23,973 and has fallen 99.2% since, to $195 in 2025. Among pain medicine clinicians in TN 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

$256,796

Medicare patients

449

Services billed

16,322

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.
