$34,408

Medicare paid this office $34,408 for 152 people.

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

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

152 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 75 · Women 55% · Also on Medicaid 24% · Health risk score 1.93. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical anesthesiology clinician is at 1.54.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 75% · Diabetes 36% · Chronic kidney disease 34% · Coronary heart disease 30% · Cancer 28% · Atrial fibrillation 26% · Depression 24% · Heart failure 20% · COPD 15% · Stroke 13% · Dementia 11%.

The office billed $314,580, Medicare allowed $43,984 and paid $34,408; for 175 services of 53 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.

$1,321 in 2020

Medicaid paid $1,321 for 16 billed services this clinician did in 2020, up to 13 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.

$63 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.
