Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 97.0% of the total across 19 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. 8 manufacturers reported payments, led by Lilly USA, LLC at 24.8% of the total. 2025 is the largest year on record at $188, more than ten times the $12 reported in 2021. That places this record below the midpoint for hematology & oncology clinicians in WI, where the typical reported total is $411.
Across 19 payments — averaging $20.58 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
Companies are grouped under their corporate parent — a single manufacturer often files under several CMS reporting entities. Research and ownership payments are counted separately and are not in this table.
| Company | Payments | Total |
|---|---|---|
| Lilly USA, LLC | 4 | $97 |
| Merck | 3 | $70 |
| Pfizer | 3 | $51 |
| Array Biopharma Inc | 2 | $44 |

How this compares
$391 in reported general payments places this provider in the 45th percentile of 248 hematology & oncology providers in Wisconsin.
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.
