Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — food and beverage (60.0%), travel and lodging and education — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. AstraZeneca accounts for 66.1% of it on its own, with 2 other manufacturers making up the rest. That places this record below the midpoint for hematology & oncology clinicians in PA, where the typical reported total is $1,277.
Across 9 payments — averaging $97.35 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
- AstraZeneca$579
- GT Medical Technologies, Inc$159
- Exelixis Inc.$137
Across 59 payments — averaging $25,293 each. Payments tied to a research study. These frequently flow through the physician to a hospital or research institution rather than to the physician personally.
- Tesaro, Inc.$449K
- E.r. Squibb & Sons, L.L.C.$447K
- Merck$343K
- Genmab U.S., Inc.$115K

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.
| Company | Payments | Total |
|---|---|---|
| AstraZeneca | 7 | $579 |
| GT Medical Technologies, Inc | 1 | $159 |
| Exelixis Inc. | 1 | $137 |
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
$876 in reported general payments places this provider in the 40th percentile of 682 hematology & oncology 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.
Most prescribed under Part D
| Drug | Claims | Cost to plans & patients |
|---|---|---|
| CreonLipase/Protease/Amylase | 14 | $17,750 |
| Prochlorperazine Maleate | 16 | $208 |
| Ondansetron Hcl | 15 | $78 |
Paid to pharmacies, not to this prescriber.
