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

Procedures Medicare counted

Who their Medicare patients are

589 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 76 · Under 65 2% · 85 and older 11% · Women 68% · Also on Medicaid 10% · Health risk score 0.89. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical orthopedic surgery clinician is at 1.13.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 63% · Diabetes 21% · Coronary heart disease 20% · Chronic kidney disease 15% · Cancer 15% · Depression 15% · Atrial fibrillation 14% · Heart failure 9% · COPD 7% · Dementia 6% · Stroke 5%.

The office billed $1,655,410, Medicare allowed $431,016 and paid $333,402; for 3,821 services of 47 kinds; $16,849 of it was for drugs given in the office and $316,553 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.

$6,323

Pharmacies billed $6,323 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 31% of their Part D prescriptions (73 of 236) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical orthopedic surgery clinician is at 31%.

230 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $6,323 in drug cost · 12 antibiotic prescriptions.

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.

$41 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.
