Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — food and beverage (57.0%), education and consulting fees — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. It is spread thinly across 23 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 22.1%. Reporting peaked in 2021 at $1,211 and has fallen 82.7% since, to $209 in 2025.
Across 76 payments — averaging $52.35 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

- Stryker$804

What the payments were for
- Consulting fees$80020%
- Food & beverage$2,26957%

Most of this is food and beverage — typically meals provided during product presentations at a clinic or hospital. Nationally that is the single largest category of reported payments by count.
General payments by program year
Who reported the general payments

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.

- A.L.P.S.$145
- INBONE$135

How this compares
$3,979 in reported general payments places this provider in the 80th percentile of 151 podiatrist providers in Arizona.
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 |
|---|---|---|
| Fluconazole | 130 | $1,490 |
| Doxycycline Hyclate | 38 | $421 |
| Hydrocodone-AcetaminophenHydrocodone/Acetaminophen | 36 | $259 |
| Diclofenac Sodium | 17 | $208 |
| Gabapentin | 19 | $139 |
| Meloxicam | 31 | $47 |
| Oxycodone Hcl | 11 | $35 |
