Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by food and beverage: $1,340 of the $1,645 with a category attached, or 81.4%. Medtronic accounts for 62.1% of it on its own, with 6 other manufacturers making up the rest. 2025 is the largest year on record at $1,133, more than ten times the $100 reported in 2019. That places this record below the midpoint for clinical cardiac electrophysiology clinicians in CA, where the typical reported total is $26,911.
Across 31 payments — averaging $53.07 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

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 |
|---|---|---|
| Medtronic(2 entities) | 19 | $1,022 |
| Abbott | 6 | $312 |
| Astrazeneca UK Limited | 1 | $135 |
| Amarin Pharma, Inc. | 1 | $100 |
| Bardy Diagnostics, Inc. | 1 | $33 |
| ZOLL Services LLC (a/k/a ZOLL Lifecor Corp) | 2 | $29 |
| Cardiva Medical, Inc. | 1 | $14 |
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
$1,645 in reported general payments places this provider in the 10th percentile of 290 clinical cardiac electrophysiology providers in California.

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.
