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

$72,327

Medicare paid this office $72,327 for 138 people.

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

Procedures Medicare counted

Who their Medicare patients are

138 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 75 · Women 46% · Also on Medicaid 18% · Health risk score 1.45. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical general surgery clinician is at 1.69.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 75% · Diabetes 35% · Coronary heart disease 30% · Chronic kidney disease 26% · Depression 25% · Atrial fibrillation 21% · Heart failure 17% · COPD 13% · Dementia 13% · Cancer 12% · Stroke 12%.

The office billed $305,686, Medicare allowed $94,278 and paid $72,327; for 783 services of 58 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.

$457 in 2021

Medicaid paid $457 for 18 billed services this clinician did in 2021, up to 14 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.

$608

Pharmacies billed $608 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 37% of their Part D prescriptions (21 of 57) in 2024. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical general surgery clinician is at 34%.

57 generic and 0 brand-name prescriptions · $608 in drug cost · 14 antibiotic prescriptions to 11 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.

$2,738 in 2024

Paid work is consulting, speaking, honoraria and royalties, as opposed to meals and travel.

A payment is not proof that care is biased.
