$338,206

Medicare paid this office $338,206 for 677 people.

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

Procedures Medicare counted

Procedures year by year

Times billed to Original Medicare each year. A blank year means fewer than 11 people had it, or none: Medicare does not publish smaller counts. Medicare Advantage patients are not included.

Who their Medicare patients are

677 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 75 · Under 65 8% · 85 and older 13% · Women 58% · Also on Medicaid 27% · Health risk score 1.19. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical orthopedic surgery clinician is at 1.13.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 75% · Diabetes 27% · Coronary heart disease 25% · Depression 21% · Chronic kidney disease 19% · Atrial fibrillation 19% · Cancer 16% · Heart failure 15% · COPD 12% · Dementia 8% · Stroke 8%.

The office billed $922,224, Medicare allowed $438,074 and paid $338,206; for 5,231 services of 65 kinds; $9,359 of it was for drugs given in the office and $328,847 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.

$5,723 in 2024

Medicaid paid $5,723 for 176 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.

$9,991

Pharmacies billed $9,991 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 11% of their Part D prescriptions (47 of 427) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical orthopedic surgery clinician is at 31%. Surgeons prescribe little besides pain medicine after an operation, so their opioid share runs high.

420 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $9,991 in drug cost · 45 antibiotic prescriptions to 25 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.

$66,420 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.

Medicare did not publish checkup rates for this clinician.
