$31,851

Medicare paid this office $31,851 for 120 people. Most of that is long return visits and Botox.

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

Who their Medicare patients are

120 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 76 · Women 48% · Also on Medicaid 28% · Health risk score 2.22. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical physician assistant clinician is at 1.31.

The office billed $112,749, Medicare allowed $41,615 and paid $31,851; for 305 services of 6 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.

$2,058,566

Pharmacies billed $2,058,566 in 2024.

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

486 generic and 104 brand-name prescriptions · $2,058,566 in drug cost · 30 antibiotic prescriptions to 19 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.
