Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

The money is spread across several categories — speaking fees (52.7%), consulting fees and food and beverage — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 15 manufacturers reported payments, led by Boston Scientific at 56.0% of the total. 2025 is the largest year on record at $33,278, 6.7 times the $4,979 reported in 2019. Among gastroenterology clinicians in CT 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.

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

$83,610 in reported general payments places this provider in the 95th percentile of 326 gastroenterology providers in Connecticut.

Medicare billing

Part B allowed, 2024
$55,515
Medicare patients
141
Services billed
294

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.
