What this record shows
This record is dominated by consulting fees: $3,961,720 of the $4,468,465 with a category attached, or 88.7%.

Among otolaryngology clinicians in PA 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.

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.

| Axonics, Inc. | 92 | $1,019,966 |
What the payments were tied to
