Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — food and beverage (42.7%), speaking fees and education — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 14 manufacturers reported payments, led by Encore Medical, LP at 37.3% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $3,004 and has fallen 88.9% since, to $334 in 2025. That places this record below the midpoint for orthopaedic surgery clinicians in CO, where the typical reported total is $5,294.
Across 49 payments — averaging $128.45 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

How this compares
$6,294 in reported general payments places this provider in the 50th percentile of 383 orthopaedic surgery providers in Colorado.
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 |
|---|---|---|
| Meloxicam | 111 | $296 |
| Oxycodone Hcl | 26 | $279 |
| Methylprednisolone | 18 | $172 |
| Tramadol Hcl | 12 | $122 |
| Methocarbamol | 20 | $84 |
