Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — food and beverage (53.9%), travel and lodging and entertainment — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. Medtronic accounts for 78.7% of it on its own, with 4 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $1,458 and has fallen 88.2% since, to $172 in 2025. Among diagnostic radiology clinicians in NC 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 17 payments — averaging $108.90 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
- Medtronic$1K
- XACT Robotics Ltd$198
- Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc.$153
- Bard Peripheral Vascular, Inc.$25
- Overture Orthopaedics$19
Across 1 payment — averaging $12,800 each. An ownership or investment interest held by the physician or an immediate family member.
- Overture Orthopaedics$13K
What the payments were for
- Travel & lodging$83645%
- Food & beverage$99754%
- Entertainment$191%
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
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 |
|---|---|---|
| Medtronic | 13 | $1,458 |
| XACT Robotics Ltd | 1 | $198 |
| Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc. | 1 | $153 |
| Bard Peripheral Vascular, Inc. | 1 | $25 |
| Overture Orthopaedics | 1 | $19 |
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.
- OSTEOCOOL RF ABLATION$836
- KYPHON Balloon Kyphoplasty$237
- XACT ACE Robotic System$198
- syngo Carbon Space$153
How this compares
$1,851 in reported general payments places this provider in the 90th percentile of 1,085 diagnostic radiology providers in North Carolina.
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.
