Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by education: $10,800 of the $17,986 with a category attached, or 60.0%. Intuitive Surgical accounts for 80.8% of it on its own, with 5 other manufacturers making up the rest. 2025 is the largest year on record at $6,611, more than ten times the $137 reported in 2019. Among thoracic surgery (cardiothoracic vascular surgery) clinicians in ME 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.

General payments by program year
Who reported the general payments

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 |
|---|---|---|
| Metoprolol Tartrate | 17 | $6 |
Paid to pharmacies, not to this prescriber.
