Procedures Medicare counted

Who their Medicare patients are

102 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 74 · Women 47% · Also on Medicaid 23% · Health risk score 1.42. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical internal medicine clinician is at 1.76.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 75% · Diabetes 30% · Cancer 26% · Coronary heart disease 25% · Chronic kidney disease 25% · COPD 19% · Depression 19% · Heart failure 18% · Atrial fibrillation 15%.

The office billed $430,530, Medicare allowed $32,940 and paid $26,491; for 166 services of 36 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.

$8,835

Pharmacies billed $8,835 in 2024.

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

62 generic and 32 brand-name prescriptions · $8,835 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.

$74,594 in 2025

Paid work is consulting, speaking, honoraria and royalties, as opposed to meals and travel.

A payment is not proof that care is biased.
