$182,645

Medicare paid this office $182,645 for 1,889 people.

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

Procedures Medicare counted

Who their Medicare patients are

1,889 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 77 · Under 65 7% · 85 and older 25% · Women 53% · Also on Medicaid 39% · Health risk score 2.35. Sicker patients than 9 in 10 peers; the typical clinical cardiac electrophysiology clinician is at 1.8.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 75% · Coronary heart disease 56% · Diabetes 48% · Heart failure 45% · Atrial fibrillation 43% · Chronic kidney disease 42% · Depression 34% · COPD 29% · Dementia 26% · Cancer 22% · Stroke 20%.

The office billed $699,955, Medicare allowed $241,905 and paid $182,645; for 3,736 services of 62 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.

$24,666 in 2024

Medicaid paid $24,666 for 2,437 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 266 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.

$1,321,146

Pharmacies billed $1,321,146 in 2024.

This is pharmacy cost, not the office bill, and not what patients paid.

1,548 generic and 812 brand-name prescriptions · $1,321,146 in drug cost · 42 antibiotic prescriptions to 32 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.

Year by year

Part D prescriptions only. A drug prescribed to fewer than 11 people in a year is hidden.

$3,981 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.
