$29,364

Medicare paid this office $29,364 for 1,762 people.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

1,762 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 75 · Under 65 9% · 85 and older 18% · Women 51% · Also on Medicaid 30% · Health risk score 2.32. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical internal medicine clinician is at 1.76.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 75% · Coronary heart disease 47% · Atrial fibrillation 45% · Chronic kidney disease 42% · Heart failure 40% · Diabetes 38% · Cancer 25% · Depression 25% · Dementia 20% · COPD 19% · Stroke 19%.

The office billed $218,700, Medicare allowed $38,918 and paid $29,364; for 2,191 services of 16 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.

$14,210 in 2024

Medicaid paid $14,210 for 1,215 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 141 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.

$20,910

Pharmacies billed $20,910 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 181) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical internal medicine clinician is at 1%.

164 generic and 17 brand-name prescriptions · $20,910 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.

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.
