$38,965

Medicare paid this office $38,965 for 148 people.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

148 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 81 · 85 and older 39% · Women 57% · Also on Medicaid 18% · Health risk score 2.26. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical internal medicine clinician is at 1.76.

The office billed $142,771, Medicare allowed $49,035 and paid $38,965; for 382 services of 11 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.

$51,648

Pharmacies billed $51,648 in 2024.

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

119 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $51,648 in drug cost · 24 antibiotic prescriptions to 18 people.

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.

$112 in 2024

A payment is not proof that care is biased.
