What the public records show

We did not find matching Open Payments records for this doctor in 2025.

These records do not establish that a payment influenced prescribing or medical care.

Payment overview · 2025

General Payments

We did not find matching Open Payments records for this doctor in the selected program year.

Separate record types

Research & Ownership

Research Payments (direct recipient): not present in the loaded data

Associated Research Funding (for example, named PI): not present in the loaded data

Ownership / Investment: not present in the loaded data

These categories are never added into the General Payments headline. Associated research funding must not be described as money the doctor personally received unless the source record supports that conclusion.

Analysis 1 · Payment-linked products

Products named in Open Payments records

No payment-linked product analysis is available because no matching General Payment records were found for the selected year.

Public prescribing for products named in payments

There is no explicit payment-product set available for a Part D comparison.

The presence of the same drug in both datasets does not show that a payment caused or influenced a prescription.

Analysis 2 · Same-company prescribing overlap

Drugs reported in other payments from the same company that also appear in Medicare Part D

This analysis is independent from products named on this doctor’s individual payment records. A row appears only when the exact Open Payments reporting entity paid this doctor, that same reporting entity reported the drug or biological on at least 10 loaded General Payment records involving at least 2 distinct recipient NPIs, and this doctor has the same non-generic brand in public Part D data. This does not mean the company owns or manufactures the drug.

There is no payer-company set available for this comparison.

These facts do not show that a payment was for the drug, that the company owns or manufactures the drug, or that a payment caused or influenced prescribing.

Questions to ask

Sources and limitations

How to read this page

Payment and Medicare prescribing data can cover different years; every comparison shows both years explicitly.
Part D does not represent a doctor’s entire practice; it excludes many patients and is subject to CMS public-release thresholds.
Company–drug relationships must have an auditable source, a precise relationship type, and a valid evidence period. Unresolved mappings are not published.
Generic drug claims are not attributed to a specific manufacturer without manufacturer-level evidence.
When a source extract is incomplete, missing rows are never treated as proof of no payments or no prescriptions.
