$91,538

Medicare paid this office $91,538 for 676 people.

This is what Medicare paid the clinician — not Medicare Advantage, and not the pharmacy.

The office billed $626,231, Medicare allowed $125,997 and paid $91,538; for 15,400 services of 36 kinds; $1,621 of it was for drugs given in the office and $89,917 for care.

Original Medicare patients only. A risk score of 1.0 is the average Medicare patient; higher means sicker. Any count under 11 is hidden.

Year by year

Original Medicare only. A service billed for fewer than 11 people in a year is hidden, so the lines can add up to less than the year's total.

$14,420 in 2024

Medicaid paid $14,420 for 214 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 26 people in a month for one service.

Medicaid and CHIP claims where this clinician did the service, fee-for-service and managed care together. Any month with fewer than 11 patients is hidden, so small Medicaid practices undercount.

Medicare did not publish checkup rates for this clinician.
