What this record shows

The money is spread across several categories — food and beverage (57.7%), travel and lodging and consulting fees — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 33 manufacturers reported payments, led by Coloplast at 30.5% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $3,080 and has fallen 99.3% since, to $21 in 2025.

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.

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

$7,743 in reported general payments places this provider in the 75th percentile of 196 urology providers in South Carolina.
