Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

The money is spread across several categories — consulting fees (53.1%), food and beverage and travel and lodging — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. AbbVie accounts for 84.2% of it on its own, with 13 other manufacturers making up the rest. 2025 is the largest year on record at $13,860, 4.5 times the $3,080 reported in 2019.

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.

Medicare billing

Part B allowed, 2024
$46,219
Medicare patients
61
Services billed
131

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.
