Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 100.0% of the total across 83 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. 12 manufacturers reported payments, led by Abbott at 46.5% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2023 at $622 and has fallen 79.8% since, to $125 in 2025. That places this record below the midpoint for interventional pain medicine clinicians in AZ, where the typical reported total is $8,993.

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.

Medicare billing

Part B allowed, 2024
$39,288
Medicare patients
94
Services billed
566

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.
