Medicaid work

$3,304 in 2019

Medicaid paid $3,304 for 82 billed services this clinician did in 2019, up to 23 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.

A payment is not proof that care is biased.
