$100,624

Medicare paid this office $100,624 for 1,492 people.

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

Procedures year by year

Times billed to Original Medicare each year. A blank year means fewer than 11 people had it, or none: Medicare does not publish smaller counts. Medicare Advantage patients are not included.

Who their Medicare patients are

1,492 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 72 · Under 65 14% · 85 and older 8% · Women 47% · Also on Medicaid 44% · Health risk score 2.36. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical diagnostic radiology clinician is at 1.7.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 75% · Chronic kidney disease 39% · Diabetes 37% · Coronary heart disease 31% · Cancer 31% · Depression 28% · Heart failure 24% · Atrial fibrillation 23% · COPD 17% · Stroke 15% · Dementia 12%.

The office billed $2,143,265, Medicare allowed $139,238 and paid $100,624; for 9,936 services of 62 kinds; $832 of it was for drugs given in the office and $99,792 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.

$32,151 in 2024

Medicaid paid $32,151 for 507 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 36 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.

$25 in 2023

A payment is not proof that care is biased.

Medicare did not publish checkup rates for this clinician.
