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

Procedures Medicare counted

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

218 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 71 · Under 65 14% · 85 and older 7% · Women 54% · Also on Medicaid 35% · Health risk score 2.23. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical gastroenterology clinician is at 1.42.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 73% · Chronic kidney disease 35% · Diabetes 33% · Depression 29% · Coronary heart disease 27% · Atrial fibrillation 24% · Heart failure 23% · Cancer 23% · COPD 20% · Stroke 15% · Dementia 9%.

The office billed $657,839, Medicare allowed $70,655 and paid $56,311; for 553 services of 38 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.

$274 in 2024

Medicaid paid $274 for 13 billed services this clinician did in 2024, 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.

$114,200

Pharmacies billed $114,200 in 2024.

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

149 generic and 48 brand-name prescriptions · $114,200 in drug cost · 30 antibiotic prescriptions to 18 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.

$1,870 in 2025

A payment is not proof that care is biased.
