$59,345

Medicare paid this office $59,345 for 273 people.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

273 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 75 · Under 65 12% · 85 and older 18% · Women 51% · Also on Medicaid 24% · Health risk score 1.94. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical family practice clinician is at 1.13.

The office billed $700,126, Medicare allowed $75,714 and paid $59,345; for 737 services of 11 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.

$2,703 in 2024

Medicaid paid $2,703 for 41 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 12 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.

$14,717

Pharmacies billed $14,717 in 2024.

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

174 generic and 23 brand-name prescriptions · $14,717 in drug cost · 24 antibiotic prescriptions to 21 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.
