These rate the hospital, not this clinician. Most measures at most hospitals are no different from the national rate.

$10,408

Medicare paid this office $10,408 for 56 people.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

56 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 72 · Women 50% · Health risk score 1.39. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical nephrology clinician is at 4.01.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 66% · Diabetes 38% · Chronic kidney disease 34% · Coronary heart disease 25%.

The office billed $62,930, Medicare allowed $14,219 and paid $10,408; for 96 services of 4 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.

$5,161

Pharmacies billed $5,161 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 92) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical nephrology clinician is at 0%.

88 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $5,161 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.

Medicare did not publish checkup rates for this clinician.
