$107,402

Medicare paid this office $107,402 for 1,338 people.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

1,338 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 76 · Under 65 9% · 85 and older 18% · Women 48% · Also on Medicaid 27% · Health risk score 2.09. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical cardiology clinician is at 1.71.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 75% · Coronary heart disease 52% · Heart failure 50% · Atrial fibrillation 47% · Chronic kidney disease 45% · Diabetes 38% · Cancer 24% · Depression 23% · COPD 19% · Stroke 17% · Dementia 14%.

The office billed $1,009,957, Medicare allowed $143,701 and paid $107,402; for 2,025 services of 33 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.

$36,364 in 2024

Medicaid paid $36,364 for 647 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 61 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.

$42,786

Pharmacies billed $42,786 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 362) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical cardiology clinician is at 0%.

323 generic and 39 brand-name prescriptions · $42,786 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.

$443 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.

Medicare did not publish checkup rates for this clinician.
