Medicare Enrolled

Dr. Ernest Orphanos, DDS

Q: Does Dr. Orphanos receive payments from pharmaceutical companies?

Yes. Dr. Orphanos received a total of $48,100 from 18 companies across 94 payment records. A record can group multiple payments. These transfers are publicly disclosed through CMS Open Payments. Disclosure alone does not establish their legality or effect on care. Patients may wish to ask their doctor about these relationships, especially if a recommended drug or device appears in the payment records.

Q: What does Data Coverage mean?

Data Coverage (currently High for Dr. Orphanos) measures how much public federal data is available about a provider. It is not a quality rating. A Very High or High level means the provider has data across multiple federal sources (NPPES, PECOS, Medicare Utilization, Open Payments), indicating the presence of registry, enrollment, activity or payment records, not verified experience or clinical quality. A Low or Moderate level may simply mean the provider is newer, does not see Medicare patients, or has not received any industry payments — none of which are inherently negative.
