$13,415

Medicare paid this office $13,415 for 90 people.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

90 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 74 · Under 65 18% · 85 and older 20% · Women 53% · Also on Medicaid 78% · Health risk score 2.44. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical emergency medicine clinician is at 2.01.

The office billed $102,147, Medicare allowed $17,413 and paid $13,415; for 145 services of 19 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.

$9,024 in 2024

Medicaid paid $9,024 for 380 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 60 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.

$2,645

Pharmacies billed $2,645 in 2024.

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

97 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $2,645 in drug cost · 33 antibiotic prescriptions to 26 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.

$19 in 2021

A payment is not proof that care is biased.
