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 |
|---|---|---|
| Stryker | 223 | $12,306 |
| Corelink, LLC | 15 | $2,638 |
| Zavation Medical Products, LLC | 17 | $797 |
| Pylant Medical | 3 | $429 |
| Medtronic | 1 | $64 |
| Theragen, Inc. | 1 | $28 |
| CPM Medical Consultants, LLC | 1 | $20 |

| GSK | 1 | $16 |
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
$16,315 in reported general payments places this provider in the 70th percentile of 582 neurological surgery providers in Texas.
