$52,087

Medicare paid this office $52,087 for 24 people.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

24 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 70 · Health risk score 1.96. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical neurosurgery clinician is at 1.46.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 75% · Stroke 58% · Coronary heart disease 50% · Heart failure 46% · Depression 46%.

The office billed $396,895, Medicare allowed $65,237 and paid $52,087; for 107 services of 31 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.

$333 in 2023

Medicaid paid $333 for 36 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.

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

Opioids were 0% of their 12 Part D prescriptions in 2022. Too few prescriptions to judge: with under about 50 a year, a handful of patients can swing this share.

Part D prescriptions only. A drug prescribed to fewer than 11 people in a year is hidden.

$518 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.
