Original Medicare doctor bills
$2,261

| Routine electrocardiogram (ecg) using at least 12 leads with interpretation and report only | 22 | $187 | $7 |

Original Medicare patients only. A risk score of 1.0 is the average Medicare patient; higher means sicker. Any count under 11 is hidden.

| 2020 | 11 | 11 | 66 | 1.07 | $1,224 | $288 |
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.

Medicaid work
$3,057 in 2024
Medicaid paid $3,057 for 273 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 63 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
$979,201
Pharmacies billed $979,201 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 2,039) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical cardiology clinician is at 0%.
1,575 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $979,201 in drug cost · 12 antibiotic prescriptions.
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.
