Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

This record is dominated by food and beverage: $1,943 of the $2,463 with a category attached, or 78.9%. It is spread thinly across 17 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 23.7% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Reporting peaked in 2024 at $586 and has fallen 50.7% since, to $289 in 2025. That places this record below the midpoint for neurological surgery clinicians in FL, where the typical reported total is $5,245.

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

$2,463 in reported general payments places this provider in the 35th percentile of 556 neurological surgery providers in Florida.

Medicare billing

Part B allowed, 2024
$190,363
Medicare patients
293
Services billed
655

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.
