Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 100.0% of the total across 11 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. 3 manufacturers reported payments, led by AbbVie at 53.7% of the total. That places this record below the midpoint for ophthalmology clinicians in NY, where the typical reported total is $1,047.
Across 11 payments — averaging $25.32 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
- AbbVie$150
- Glaukos Corporation$110
- Alcon$19
Across 4 payments — averaging $11,123 each. Payments tied to a research study. These frequently flow through the physician to a hospital or research institution rather than to the physician personally.

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 |
|---|---|---|
| AbbVie | 8 | $150 |
| Glaukos Corporation | 2 | $110 |
| Alcon | 1 | $19 |
How this compares
$278 in reported general payments places this provider in the 25th percentile of 1,587 ophthalmology providers in New York.
Medicare billing
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.
Most prescribed under Part D
| Drug | Claims | Cost to plans & patients |
|---|---|---|
| Tobramycin-DexamethasoneTobramycin/Dexamethasone | 14 | $567 |
| ErythromycinErythromycin Base | 18 | $214 |
| Acetaminophen-CodeineAcetaminophen With Codeine | 11 | $36 |
