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

$8,056

Medicare paid this office $8,056 for 57 people. Most of that is long return visits and Botox.

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

Procedures Medicare counted

Who their Medicare patients are

57 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 60 · Under 65 56% · Women 75% · Also on Medicaid 67% · Health risk score 1.54. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical nurse practitioner clinician is at 1.42.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 75% · Diabetes 42% · Depression 37% · Heart failure 30% · Chronic kidney disease 23% · Coronary heart disease 19%.

The office billed $68,024, Medicare allowed $10,527 and paid $8,056; for 70 services of 10 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.

$1,470 in 2020

Medicaid paid $1,470 for 85 billed services this clinician did in 2020, up to 20 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.

$93,844

Pharmacies billed $93,844 in 2024.

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

250 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $93,844 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.

$98 in 2023

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.

Medicare did not publish checkup rates for this clinician.
