Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 97.6% of the total across 68 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. Medtronic accounts for 71.5% of it on its own, with 17 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $1,351 and has fallen 92.1% since, to $107 in 2024. That places this record below the midpoint for interventional cardiology clinicians in FL, where the typical reported total is $7,973.

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

$3,209 in reported general payments places this provider in the 25th percentile of 623 interventional cardiology providers in Florida.
