$35,562

Medicare paid this office $35,562 for 144 people.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

144 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 76 · Under 65 12% · 85 and older 26% · Women 55% · Also on Medicaid 63% · Health risk score 2.18. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical general surgery clinician is at 1.69.

The office billed $408,490, Medicare allowed $45,241 and paid $35,562; for 312 services of 37 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.

$7,816 in 2024

Medicaid paid $7,816 for 382 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 28 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.

$118

Pharmacies billed $118 in 2024.

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

33 generic and 0 brand-name prescriptions · $118 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.

$3 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.
