$3,955

Medicare paid this office $3,955 for 102 people.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

102 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 73 · Under 65 18% · 85 and older 22% · Women 47% · Also on Medicaid 59% · Health risk score 2.00. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical internal medicine clinician is at 1.76.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 75% · Diabetes 47% · Coronary heart disease 37% · Chronic kidney disease 37% · Atrial fibrillation 34% · Heart failure 32% · Dementia 29% · Depression 26% · Stroke 24% · COPD 20% · Cancer 11%.

The office billed $17,870, Medicare allowed $5,282 and paid $3,955; for 147 services of 12 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.

$10,181 in 2024

Medicaid paid $10,181 for 689 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 102 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.

$126,774

Pharmacies billed $126,774 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 562) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical internal medicine clinician is at 1%.

434 generic and 128 brand-name prescriptions · $126,774 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.

$100 in 2023

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

A payment is not proof that care is biased.
