This is what Medicare paid the clinician — not Medicare Advantage, and not the pharmacy.
Who their Medicare patients are
16 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 73 · Women 100% · Health risk score 0.92. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical obstetrics & gynecology clinician is at 0.88.
The office billed $11,390, Medicare allowed $2,661 and paid $2,022; for 22 services of 10 kinds.
Original Medicare patients only. A risk score of 1.0 is the average Medicare patient; higher means sicker. Any count under 11 is hidden.

| 2022 | 12 | 20 | 62 | 0.95 | $5,334 | $1,593 |
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.
Medicaid work
$47 in 2022
Medicaid paid $47 for 95 billed services this clinician did in 2022, up to 22 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.
