$1,118,792

Medicare paid this office $1,118,792 for 480 people.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

480 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 75 · Under 65 6% · 85 and older 14% · Women 65% · Also on Medicaid 26% · Health risk score 1.83. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical hematology-oncology clinician is at 2.04.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 75% · Cancer 50% · Chronic kidney disease 41% · Diabetes 40% · Coronary heart disease 34% · Heart failure 25% · Atrial fibrillation 24% · Depression 21% · COPD 17% · Stroke 11% · Dementia 8%.

The office billed $3,494,160, Medicare allowed $1,410,907 and paid $1,118,792; for 66,943 services of 117 kinds; $887,333 of it was for drugs given in the office and $231,459 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.

$2,017 in 2024

Medicaid paid $2,017 for 387 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 25 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.

$2,986,066

Pharmacies billed $2,986,066 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 5% of their Part D prescriptions (70 of 1,345) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical hematology-oncology clinician is at 5%. Long-acting opioids: 20% of their opioid prescriptions.

1,009 generic and 336 brand-name prescriptions · $2,986,066 in drug cost · 69 antibiotic prescriptions to 38 people.

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.

$8,619 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.
