$10,792

Medicare paid this office $10,792 for 77 people.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

77 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 72 · Women 61% · Also on Medicaid 42% · Health risk score 2.39. Sicker patients than 9 in 10 peers; the typical endocrinology clinician is at 1.46.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 75% · Diabetes 75% · Chronic kidney disease 51% · Coronary heart disease 36% · Heart failure 36% · Atrial fibrillation 27% · Depression 25% · COPD 19% · Stroke 18% · Cancer 14%.

The office billed $66,704, Medicare allowed $13,540 and paid $10,792; for 212 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.

$8,300 in 2021

Medicaid paid $8,300 for 242 billed services this clinician did in 2021, up to 29 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.

$166,670

Pharmacies billed $166,670 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 84) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical endocrinology clinician is at 0%.

0 generic and 54 brand-name prescriptions · $166,670 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.
