$4,830

Medicare paid this office $4,830 for 26 people.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

26 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 71 · Health risk score 1.99. Sicker patients than 9 in 10 peers; the typical rheumatology clinician is at 1.38.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 73% · Depression 42%.

The office billed $11,001, Medicare allowed $6,170 and paid $4,830; for 34 services of 7 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.

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

Opioids were 0% of their 22 Part D prescriptions in 2023. Too few prescriptions to judge: with under about 50 a year, a handful of patients can swing this share.

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

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.

Medicare did not publish checkup rates for this clinician.
