$5,268

Medicare paid this office $5,268 for 15 people.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

15 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 72 · Health risk score 1.52. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical physical medicine and rehabilitation clinician is at 1.53.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 75%.

The office billed $13,868, Medicare allowed $6,745 and paid $5,268; for 48 services of 15 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.

$3,500

Pharmacies billed $3,500 in 2024.

This is pharmacy cost, not the office bill, and not what patients paid.

Opioids were 20% of their Part D prescriptions (24 of 120) in 2024. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical physical medicine and rehabilitation clinician is at 12%. Long-acting opioids: 58% of their opioid prescriptions.

119 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $3,500 in drug cost.

Part D prescriptions only. The opioid rate is opioid prescriptions as a share of all this clinician's Part D prescriptions; surgeons and pain specialists run higher than others, so it is shown against the same specialty.

Year by year

Part D prescriptions only. A drug prescribed to fewer than 11 people in a year is hidden.

$224 in 2025

Paid work is consulting, speaking, honoraria and royalties, as opposed to meals and travel.

A payment is not proof that care is biased.

Research money

Money a company paid to run a study. Where it went to their institution, the clinician is named as an investigator and did not receive it; the amount covers the whole study, often across many sites.
