$27,501

Medicare paid this office $27,501 for 57 people.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

57 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 76 · Women 75% · Health risk score 1.08. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical pain management clinician is at 1.38.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 75% · Diabetes 30% · Coronary heart disease 26% · Chronic kidney disease 25% · Atrial fibrillation 19%.

The office billed $105,512, Medicare allowed $34,516 and paid $27,501; for 1,188 services of 28 kinds; $5,043 of it was for drugs given in the office and $22,457 for care.

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.

$74 in 2023

Medicaid paid $74 for 40 billed services this clinician did in 2023, up to 34 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.

$1,019

Pharmacies billed $1,019 in 2024.

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

38 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $1,019 in drug cost.

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.

$49 in 2025

Paid work is consulting, speaking, honoraria and royalties, as opposed to meals and travel.

A payment is not proof that care is biased.

Research money

Money a company paid to run a study. Where it went to their institution, the clinician is named as an investigator and did not receive it; the amount covers the whole study, often across many sites.
