What this record shows

Reporting peaked in 2019 at $148 and has fallen 83.5% since, to $24 in 2024.

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 |
|---|---|---|
| Insulet Corporation | 1 | $148 |
| Tolmar, Inc. | 1 | $88 |
| Abbott | 1 | $24 |
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.
- Omnipod$148
How this compares
$261 in reported general payments places this provider in the 30th percentile of 168 pediatric endocrinology providers in California.
