Depuy Synthes Products, Inc. accounts for 69.6% of it on its own, with 10 other manufacturers making up the rest. Among orthopaedic surgery clinicians in CA with any reported payments, this total sits in the top 5% — high for the specialty, which is a reason to read the composition above rather than the number alone.

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

$796,751 in reported general payments places this provider in the 95th percentile of 1,808 orthopaedic surgery providers in California.
