$18,843

Medicare paid this office $18,843 for 105 people.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

105 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 74 · Women 59% · Also on Medicaid 47% · Health risk score 1.41. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical anesthesiology clinician is at 1.54.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 75% · Diabetes 38% · Coronary heart disease 33% · Depression 28% · Chronic kidney disease 24% · Atrial fibrillation 18% · Cancer 15% · Heart failure 14% · Stroke 13% · COPD 12% · Dementia 12%.

The office billed $296,951, Medicare allowed $23,667 and paid $18,843; for 111 services of 30 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.

$1,423 in 2024

Medicaid paid $1,423 for 13 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 13 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.

$75 in 2023

A payment is not proof that care is biased.

Medicare did not publish checkup rates for this clinician.
