$106,248

Medicare paid this office $106,248 for 356 people.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

356 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 72 · Under 65 15% · 85 and older 10% · Women 38% · Also on Medicaid 42% · Health risk score 3.90. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical nephrology clinician is at 4.01.

The office billed $665,576, Medicare allowed $137,368 and paid $106,248; for 1,208 services of 17 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.

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.

$12,855 in 2024

Medicaid paid $12,855 for 178 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 17 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.

$898,700

Pharmacies billed $898,700 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 0% of their Part D prescriptions (0 of 216) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical nephrology clinician is at 0%.

185 generic and 31 brand-name prescriptions · $898,700 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.

$4,619 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.

Medicare did not publish checkup rates for this clinician.
