United Orthopedics LLC's CMS-reported General Payments increased by $4.0K (+9.1%) from PY2023 to PY2024.
How this year-over-year comparison is scoped
The comparison uses consecutive CMS program years only (current = prior + 1) from the manufacturer General Payments summary and excludes research and ownership or investment records. Non-consecutive year pairs are not shown as year-over-year change. This General Payments figure is not the all-tracks company total in the hero.
CMS source labels for this exact identifier: PY2022: UNITED ORTHOPEDICS LLCPY2023: UNITED ORTHOPEDICS LLCPY2024: United Orthopedics LLC. Matching identifiers support a bounded record comparison; a label difference would be reported as unresolved rather than treated as a corporate event.

What the Data Shows for United Orthopedics LLC
Three separate CMS disclosure tracks feed the all-tracks total above - General, Research, and Ownership/Investment - each reported under its own rules and combined here for one comparable figure. For United Orthopedics LLC that figure is drawn almost entirely from the General Payments track (day-to-day consulting, meals, travel and speaking fees). CMS releases each Program Year roughly 12 months after it ends; the methodology page covers the full standardization basis.
Of the 3 general-payment categories charted below, "Travel and Lodging" is the largest at $31.7K across 85 transactions, 66.0% of this company's General Payments (see our methodology for how research and ownership payments are reported separately).
