Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

The money is spread across several categories — grants (47.4%), food and beverage and speaking fees — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 25 manufacturers reported payments, led by Bausch & Lomb, A Division Of Bausch Health US, LLC at 28.6% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $12,003 and has fallen 66.5% since, to $4,020 in 2025. Among optometrist clinicians in MO 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.

Medicare billing

Part B allowed, 2024
$17,123
Medicare patients
120
Services billed
567

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.
