Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 100.0% of the total across 40 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. 11 manufacturers reported payments, led by Pfizer at 30.7% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $387 and has fallen 55.9% since, to $171 in 2022. Among hospitalist clinicians in VA with any reported payments, this total sits in the top 10% — high for the specialty, which is a reason to read the composition above rather than the number alone.
Across 40 payments — averaging $21.06 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

|---|---|---|
| Pfizer | 14 | $259 |
| AbbVie | 8 | $182 |
| Boston Scientific | 2 | $119 |
| Novo Nordisk | 4 | $66 |

How this compares
$843 in reported general payments places this provider in the 90th percentile of 539 hospitalist providers in Virginia.
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 |
|---|---|---|
| Amoxicillin-Clavulanate PotassAmoxicillin/Potassium Clav | 18 | $273 |
| Cefdinir | 26 | $196 |
| Pantoprazole Sodium | 13 | $108 |
| Amlodipine Besylate | 11 | $31 |
| Prednisone | 11 | $28 |
