$45,126

Medicare paid this office $45,126 for 133 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

133 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 76 · Women 56% · Also on Medicaid 32% · Health risk score 1.59. Sicker patients than 9 in 10 peers; the typical ophthalmology clinician is at 1.16.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 68% · Diabetes 35% · Chronic kidney disease 29% · Coronary heart disease 24% · Depression 22% · Cancer 20% · Atrial fibrillation 19% · Heart failure 17% · Stroke 8%.

The office billed $481,566, Medicare allowed $61,845 and paid $45,126; for 709 services of 24 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.

$8,739 in 2024

Medicaid paid $8,739 for 78 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 19 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.

$8,060

Pharmacies billed $8,060 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 131) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical ophthalmology clinician is at 0%.

93 generic and 38 brand-name prescriptions · $8,060 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.

$13,164 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.

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.
