$81,838

Medicare paid this office $81,838 for 474 people.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

474 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 76 · Under 65 10% · 85 and older 23% · Women 52% · Also on Medicaid 41% · Health risk score 2.23. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical emergency medicine clinician is at 2.01.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 75% · Coronary heart disease 39% · Chronic kidney disease 39% · Heart failure 34% · Depression 34% · Diabetes 32% · Atrial fibrillation 31% · COPD 22% · Stroke 20% · Cancer 19% · Dementia 19%.

The office billed $808,469, Medicare allowed $105,794 and paid $81,838; for 1,023 services of 66 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.

$53,269 in 2024

Medicaid paid $53,269 for 855 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 32 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.

$3,596

Pharmacies billed $3,596 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 8% of their Part D prescriptions (14 of 178) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical emergency medicine clinician is at 12%.

166 generic and 12 brand-name prescriptions · $3,596 in drug cost · 67 antibiotic prescriptions to 58 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.

Year by year

Part D prescriptions only. A drug prescribed to fewer than 11 people in a year is hidden.

$22 in 2024

A payment is not proof that care is biased.

Medicare did not publish checkup rates for this clinician.
