Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by grants: $26,875 of the $33,475 with a category attached, or 80.3%. 10 manufacturers reported payments, led by Boston Scientific at 45.5% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2024 at $24,018 and has fallen 98.3% since, to $420 in 2025. Among pain medicine clinicians in OH 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.
Across 53 payments — averaging $631.61 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.

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
$33,475 in reported general payments places this provider in the 95th percentile of 245 pain medicine providers in Ohio.
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 |
|---|---|---|
| Gabapentin | 15 | $230 |
| Tizanidine Hcl | 21 | $150 |
Paid to pharmacies, not to this prescriber.
