These rate the hospital, not this clinician. Most measures at most hospitals are no different from the national rate.

$170,330

Medicare paid this office $170,330 for 648 people.

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

Procedures Medicare counted

Who their Medicare patients are

648 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 68 · Under 65 22% · 85 and older 8% · Women 55% · Also on Medicaid 78% · Health risk score 1.29. Sicker patients than 9 in 10 peers; the typical dermatology clinician is at 1.01.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 71% · Diabetes 38% · Chronic kidney disease 23% · Depression 23% · Coronary heart disease 20% · COPD 15% · Heart failure 13% · Atrial fibrillation 12% · Cancer 10% · Stroke 8% · Dementia 6%.

The office billed $509,972, Medicare allowed $235,627 and paid $170,330; for 2,457 services of 28 kinds; $24 of it was for drugs given in the office and $170,306 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.

$1,030,288 in 2024

Medicaid paid $1,030,288 for 16,282 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 621 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.

$1,904,840

Pharmacies billed $1,904,840 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 1,057) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical dermatology clinician is at 0%.

796 generic and 261 brand-name prescriptions · $1,904,840 in drug cost · 24 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.

$812 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.

Research money

Money a company paid to run a study. Where it went to their institution, the clinician is named as an investigator and did not receive it; the amount covers the whole study, often across many sites.

4 measures · 2023

Medicare asked this office to report how often certain checkups happened in 2023. This is not a grade for the doctor. A specialist’s patients may not need every screening.
