$52,296

Medicare paid this office $52,296 for 386 people.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

386 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 75 · Under 65 12% · 85 and older 23% · Women 53% · Also on Medicaid 32% · Health risk score 2.30. 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% · Diabetes 37% · Chronic kidney disease 33% · Heart failure 30% · Atrial fibrillation 30% · Depression 30% · Cancer 20% · Dementia 19% · Stroke 19% · COPD 16%.

The office billed $347,628, Medicare allowed $69,086 and paid $52,296; for 440 services of 31 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.

$39,217 in 2024

Medicaid paid $39,217 for 362 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 30 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.

$2,185

Pharmacies billed $2,185 in 2024.

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

62 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $2,185 in drug cost · 32 antibiotic prescriptions to 27 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.

Medicare did not publish checkup rates for this clinician.
