$59,483

Medicare paid this office $59,483 for 116 people.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

116 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 74 · Women 53% · Also on Medicaid 12% · Health risk score 2.50. Sicker patients than 9 in 10 peers; the typical neurology clinician is at 1.61.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 70% · Stroke 43% · Cancer 41% · Depression 36% · Coronary heart disease 33% · Diabetes 29% · Chronic kidney disease 23% · Dementia 22% · Atrial fibrillation 20% · Heart failure 19% · COPD 17%.

The office billed $349,808, Medicare allowed $77,316 and paid $59,483; for 638 services of 25 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.

$92,101

Pharmacies billed $92,101 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 16% of their Part D prescriptions (32 of 204) in 2024. A higher opioid share than 9 in 10 peers; the typical neurology clinician is at 0%. Long-acting opioids: 47% of their opioid prescriptions.

178 generic and 26 brand-name prescriptions · $92,101 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.

$327 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.
