Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 100.0% of the total across 15 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. 9 manufacturers reported payments, led by Bioventus LLC at 32.9% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2024 at $383 and has fallen 69.4% since, to $117 in 2025. That places this record below the midpoint for orthopaedic surgery of the spine clinicians in MA, where the typical reported total is $21,142.

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

$666 in reported general payments places this provider in the 5th percentile of 28 orthopaedic surgery of the spine providers in Massachusetts.

Medicare billing

Part B allowed, 2024
$50,812
Medicare patients
278
Services billed
573

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.
