$85,667

Medicare paid this office $85,667 for 155 people.

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

Procedures Medicare counted

Procedures year by year

Times billed to Original Medicare each year. A blank year means fewer than 11 people had it, or none: Medicare does not publish smaller counts. Medicare Advantage patients are not included.

Who their Medicare patients are

155 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 78 · Women 54% · Also on Medicaid 71% · Health risk score 2.28. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical cardiac surgery clinician is at 1.73.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 75% · Coronary heart disease 75% · Heart failure 75% · Diabetes 68% · Chronic kidney disease 52% · Atrial fibrillation 50% · COPD 43% · Depression 42% · Dementia 26% · Cancer 19% · Stroke 19%.

The office billed $402,894, Medicare allowed $107,639 and paid $85,667; for 292 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.

$358 in 2021

Medicaid paid $358 for 71 billed services this clinician did in 2021, up to 16 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.

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

Opioids were 23% of their 48 Part D prescriptions in 2017. Too few prescriptions to judge: with under about 50 a year, a handful of patients can swing this share.

Part D prescriptions only. A drug prescribed to fewer than 11 people in a year is hidden.

Year by year

Part D prescriptions only. A drug prescribed to fewer than 11 people in a year is hidden.

$837 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.

Medicare did not publish checkup rates for this clinician.
