$679,948

Medicare paid this office $679,948 for 667 people.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

667 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 76 · Under 65 2% · 85 and older 12% · Women 55% · Also on Medicaid 42% · Health risk score 1.38. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical sleep medicine clinician is at 1.21.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 75% · Diabetes 37% · Coronary heart disease 35% · COPD 33% · Chronic kidney disease 26% · Atrial fibrillation 21% · Heart failure 19% · Depression 16% · Cancer 12% · Dementia 9% · Stroke 7%.

The office billed $2,421,048, Medicare allowed $861,272 and paid $679,948; for 53,082 services of 43 kinds; $346,326 of it was for drugs given in the office and $333,622 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.

$5,166 in 2024

Medicaid paid $5,166 for 1,192 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 28 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.

$2,268,065

Pharmacies billed $2,268,065 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 3,136) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical sleep medicine clinician is at 0%.

1,721 generic and 1,415 brand-name prescriptions · $2,268,065 in drug cost · 202 antibiotic prescriptions to 153 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.

$5,747 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.
