Original Medicare doctor bills

$2,437

Medicare paid this office $2,437 for 12 people.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

12 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 65 · Health risk score 1.77. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical infectious disease clinician is at 3.

The office billed $12,930, Medicare allowed $3,053 and paid $2,437; for 27 services of 4 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.

Medicaid work

$22,379 in 2024

Medicaid paid $22,379 for 132 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 25 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.

Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$256,918

Pharmacies billed $256,918 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 5% of their Part D prescriptions (20 of 372) in 2024. A higher opioid share than 9 in 10 peers; the typical infectious disease clinician is at 0%. Long-acting opioids: 75% of their opioid prescriptions.

244 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $256,918 in drug cost · 12 antipsychotic prescriptions to people over 65.

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.
