$251,953

Medicare paid this office $251,953 for 720 people.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

720 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 77 · Under 65 2% · 85 and older 17% · Women 59% · Also on Medicaid 11% · Health risk score 1.11. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical otolaryngology clinician is at 1.19.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 67% · Coronary heart disease 36% · Diabetes 23% · Depression 20% · Cancer 17% · Atrial fibrillation 16% · Chronic kidney disease 14% · Heart failure 13% · COPD 12% · Stroke 11% · Dementia 8%.

The office billed $1,568,251, Medicare allowed $330,350 and paid $251,953; for 2,067 services of 66 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.

$31,915

Pharmacies billed $31,915 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 3% of their Part D prescriptions (25 of 925) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical otolaryngology clinician is at 4%.

874 generic and 51 brand-name prescriptions · $31,915 in drug cost · 42 antibiotic prescriptions to 36 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.

$3,560 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.
