Who their Medicare patients are

28 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 73 · Women 61% · Also on Medicaid 43% · Health risk score 1.83. Sicker patients than 9 in 10 peers; the typical otolaryngology clinician is at 1.19.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 75% · Diabetes 43%.

The office billed $53,204, Medicare allowed $7,245 and paid $5,772; for 34 services of 16 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.

Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$924

Pharmacies billed $924 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 31% of their Part D prescriptions (22 of 70) in 2024. A higher opioid share than 9 in 10 peers; the typical otolaryngology clinician is at 4%.

69 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $924 in drug cost · 19 antibiotic prescriptions to 19 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.
