$60,182

Medicare paid this office $60,182 for 227 people.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

227 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 71 · Under 65 19% · 85 and older 9% · Women 45% · Also on Medicaid 38% · Health risk score 2.48. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical infectious disease clinician is at 3.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 75% · Chronic kidney disease 38% · Depression 38% · Diabetes 37% · Coronary heart disease 33% · Heart failure 30% · COPD 28% · Atrial fibrillation 23% · Cancer 19% · Dementia 15% · Stroke 15%.

The office billed $380,261, Medicare allowed $78,343 and paid $60,182; for 961 services of 21 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.

$26,060 in 2024

Medicaid paid $26,060 for 304 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 19 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.

$291,601

Pharmacies billed $291,601 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 0% of their Part D prescriptions (0 of 814) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical infectious disease clinician is at 0%.

780 generic and 34 brand-name prescriptions · $291,601 in drug cost · 675 antibiotic prescriptions to 128 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.

Medicare did not publish checkup rates for this clinician.
