$694,128

Medicare paid this office $694,128 for 220 people.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

220 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 77 · Women 49% · Also on Medicaid 19% · Health risk score 1.77. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical hematology-oncology clinician is at 2.04.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 69% · Cancer 37% · Coronary heart disease 29% · Heart failure 22% · Atrial fibrillation 22% · Chronic kidney disease 20% · Diabetes 16% · Depression 16% · Stroke 15% · COPD 11% · Dementia 8%.

The office billed $2,364,213, Medicare allowed $878,961 and paid $694,128; for 48,470 services of 73 kinds; $590,007 of it was for drugs given in the office and $104,121 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.

$11,203 in 2024

Medicaid paid $11,203 for 154 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 23 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.

$875,766

Pharmacies billed $875,766 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 6% of their Part D prescriptions (25 of 448) in 2024. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical hematology-oncology clinician is at 5%.

346 generic and 102 brand-name prescriptions · $875,766 in drug cost · 15 antibiotic prescriptions to 14 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.

$36 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.

Research money

Money a company paid to run a study. Where it went to their institution, the clinician is named as an investigator and did not receive it; the amount covers the whole study, often across many sites.
