Who their Medicare patients are

71 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 74 · Women 66% · Also on Medicaid 20% · Health risk score 1.11. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical physician assistant clinician is at 1.31.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 72% · Coronary heart disease 28% · Depression 28% · Chronic kidney disease 23% · COPD 21% · Atrial fibrillation 20% · Diabetes 15%.

The office billed $501,879, Medicare allowed $15,511 and paid $12,353; for 235 services of 35 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 by year
202471235741.11$501,879$12,353
20233576731.27$216,219$5,274

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.

Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$3,037

Pharmacies billed $3,037 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 22% of their Part D prescriptions (89 of 410) in 2024. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical physician assistant clinician is at 1%.

407 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $3,037 in drug cost · 45 antibiotic prescriptions to 30 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.
