Original Medicare doctor bills
$11,269
Medicare paid this office $11,269 for 106 people.
This is what Medicare paid the clinician — not Medicare Advantage, and not the pharmacy.
| Return visit (30+ min) | 43 | $5,211 | $91 |
| Short return visit (20+ min) | 41 | $2,501 | $56 |
| New patient visit (30+ min) | 29 | $1,598 | $55 |
Who their Medicare patients are
106 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 74 · Women 65% · Also on Medicaid 14% · Health risk score 0.98. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical physician assistant clinician is at 1.31.
Conditions among them: High blood pressure 65% · Depression 25% · Diabetes 21% · Coronary heart disease 18% · Chronic kidney disease 18% · Atrial fibrillation 18% · Cancer 17% · Heart failure 13%.
The office billed $51,932, Medicare allowed $17,615 and paid $11,269; for 154 services of 17 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
| 2024 | 106 | 154 | 74 | 0.98 | $51,932 | $11,269 |
| 2023 | 144 | 202 | 75 | 1.15 | $63,100 | $16,037 |
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.

Medicaid work
$2,863 in 2018
Medicaid paid $2,863 for 20 billed services this clinician did in 2018, up to 18 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.
| Clinic visit/encounter, all-inclusive | 20 | $2,863 |
| 2018 | 20 | 1 | 18 | $2,863 |
Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid
$7,222
Pharmacies billed $7,222 in 2024.
This is pharmacy cost, not the office bill, and not what patients paid.
Opioids were 0% of their Part D prescriptions (0 of 188) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical physician assistant clinician is at 1%.
169 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $7,222 in drug cost · 27 antibiotic prescriptions to 24 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.
