$36,123

Medicare paid this office $36,123 for 88 people.

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

Procedures Medicare counted

Procedures year by year

Times billed to Original Medicare each year. A blank year means fewer than 11 people had it, or none: Medicare does not publish smaller counts. Medicare Advantage patients are not included.

Who their Medicare patients are

88 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 75 · Women 51% · Also on Medicaid 33% · Health risk score 1.35. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical plastic and reconstructive surgery clinician is at 1.21.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 75% · Diabetes 36% · Coronary heart disease 30% · Chronic kidney disease 27% · Atrial fibrillation 16% · COPD 15% · Heart failure 13% · Cancer 13%.

The office billed $96,685, Medicare allowed $45,409 and paid $36,123; for 294 services of 35 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.

$0 in 2024

Medicaid paid $0 for 12 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.

$5,093

Pharmacies billed $5,093 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 49% of their Part D prescriptions (33 of 67) in 2024. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical plastic and reconstructive surgery clinician is at 28%. Surgeons prescribe little besides pain medicine after an operation, so their opioid share runs high.

56 generic and 11 brand-name prescriptions · $5,093 in drug cost · 15 antibiotic prescriptions to 12 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.

$119 in 2019

A payment is not proof that care is biased.
