$154,584

Medicare paid this office $154,584 for 257 people.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

257 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 71 · Under 65 13% · 85 and older 7% · Women 73% · Also on Medicaid 27% · Health risk score 1.51. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical rheumatology clinician is at 1.38.

The office billed $1,039,596, Medicare allowed $199,475 and paid $154,584; for 9,645 services of 28 kinds; $91,728 of it was for drugs given in the office and $62,856 for care.

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.

$911,967

Pharmacies billed $911,967 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 3% of their Part D prescriptions (27 of 1,067) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical rheumatology clinician is at 3%.

879 generic and 188 brand-name prescriptions · $911,967 in drug cost · 11 antibiotic prescriptions.

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.
