$97,505

Medicare paid this office $97,505 for 1,751 people.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

1,751 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 73 · Under 65 12% · 85 and older 11% · Women 53% · Also on Medicaid 29% · Health risk score 2.21. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical diagnostic radiology clinician is at 1.7.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 75% · Diabetes 37% · Chronic kidney disease 36% · Coronary heart disease 35% · Cancer 30% · Heart failure 27% · Atrial fibrillation 27% · Depression 23% · COPD 18% · Dementia 15% · Stroke 14%.

The office billed $1,271,276, Medicare allowed $127,046 and paid $97,505; for 2,566 services of 74 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.

$23,611 in 2024

Medicaid paid $23,611 for 576 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 44 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.

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

Opioids were 0% of their 16 Part D prescriptions in 2018. Too few prescriptions to judge: with under about 50 a year, a handful of patients can swing this share.

Part D prescriptions only. A drug prescribed to fewer than 11 people in a year is hidden.
