$44,462

Medicare paid this office $44,462 for 538 people.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

538 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 73 · Under 65 9% · 85 and older 8% · Women 46% · Also on Medicaid 9% · Health risk score 1.93. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical cardiology clinician is at 1.71.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 75% · Coronary heart disease 64% · Heart failure 47% · Atrial fibrillation 45% · Diabetes 38% · Chronic kidney disease 37% · Depression 25% · COPD 20% · Cancer 19% · Stroke 17% · Dementia 10%.

The office billed $471,213, Medicare allowed $60,834 and paid $44,462; for 908 services of 23 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.

$1,198 in 2024

Medicaid paid $1,198 for 33 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 18 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.

$229,522

Pharmacies billed $229,522 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 0% of their Part D prescriptions (0 of 831) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical cardiology clinician is at 0%.

630 generic and 201 brand-name prescriptions · $229,522 in drug cost.

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.

$159 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.
