What this record shows
This record is dominated by food and beverage: $5,694 of the $7,368 with a category attached, or 77.3%. It is spread thinly across 30 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 23.9% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Reporting peaked in 2024 at $2,220 and has fallen 52.1% since, to $1,063 in 2025.
Across 117 payments — averaging $62.98 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

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 |
|---|---|---|
| Methylprednisolone | 506 | $3,443 |
| Sulfamethoxazole-TrimethoprimSulfamethoxazole/Trimethoprim | 511 | $1,073 |
| Ibuprofen | 413 | $1,055 |
