$5,860

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

Who their Medicare patients are

60 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 76 · 85 and older 25% · Women 53% · Also on Medicaid 23% · Health risk score 1.96. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical neurology clinician is at 1.61.

The office billed $51,314, Medicare allowed $7,402 and paid $5,860; for 60 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.

$4,813 in 2022

A payment is not proof that care is biased.
