$39,877

Medicare paid this office $39,877 for 191 people.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

191 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 78 · Women 48% · Also on Medicaid 47% · Health risk score 1.61. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical internal medicine clinician is at 1.76.

The office billed $87,162, Medicare allowed $53,622 and paid $39,877; for 397 services of 7 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.

$443 in 2023

Medicaid paid $443 for 13 billed services this clinician did in 2023, up to 12 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.

$1,459,899

Pharmacies billed $1,459,899 in 2024.

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

3,088 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $1,459,899 in drug cost · 349 antibiotic prescriptions to 150 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.
