$1,679

Medicare paid this office $1,679 for 85 people.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

85 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 70 · Women 56% · Also on Medicaid 31% · Health risk score 2.28. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical pulmonary disease clinician is at 2.13.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 68% · COPD 38% · Diabetes 34% · Coronary heart disease 34% · Chronic kidney disease 34% · Atrial fibrillation 28% · Heart failure 25% · Depression 24% · Cancer 15%.

The office billed $12,095, Medicare allowed $2,106 and paid $1,679; for 155 services of 13 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.

$779 in 2024

Medicaid paid $779 for 84 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 22 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.
