Procedures Medicare counted

Who their Medicare patients are

39 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 76 · Women 41% · Health risk score 1.65. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical cardiac surgery clinician is at 1.73.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 75% · Coronary heart disease 75% · Chronic kidney disease 75% · Heart failure 67% · Atrial fibrillation 64% · Diabetes 59%.

The office billed $619,955, Medicare allowed $60,036 and paid $47,867; for 142 services of 41 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 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.

$4,964 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.

2023

Medicare did not publish checkup rates for this clinician.

What the office says it does

Boxes the office ticked on its Medicare worksheet for 2023. Nobody checks these.
