$11,575

Medicare paid this office $11,575 for 84 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

84 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 67 · Under 65 30% · Women 48% · Also on Medicaid 26% · Health risk score 1.16. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical physician assistant clinician is at 1.31.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 58% · Diabetes 25% · Depression 25% · Coronary heart disease 23% · Cancer 20% · Chronic kidney disease 17% · COPD 13%.

The office billed $33,645, Medicare allowed $15,793 and paid $11,575; for 131 services of 15 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.

$1,881 in 2023

Medicaid paid $1,881 for 26 billed services this clinician did in 2023, up to 14 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.

$3,759

Pharmacies billed $3,759 in 2024.

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

44 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $3,759 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.

$187 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.

Medicare did not publish checkup rates for this clinician.
