Procedures Medicare counted

Who their Medicare patients are

638 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 77 · Women 17% · Also on Medicaid 5% · Health risk score 1.18. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical urology clinician is at 1.36.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 75% · Coronary heart disease 39% · Cancer 38% · Diabetes 31% · Chronic kidney disease 26% · Atrial fibrillation 22% · Heart failure 14% · Depression 14% · Stroke 11% · COPD 9% · Dementia 8%.

The office billed $3,422,202, Medicare allowed $1,132,916 and paid $910,597; for 16,029 services of 123 kinds; $104,929 of it was for drugs given in the office and $805,668 for care.

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.

$719,815

Pharmacies billed $719,815 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 1% of their Part D prescriptions (15 of 1,434) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical urology clinician is at 2%.

1,196 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $719,815 in drug cost · 194 antibiotic prescriptions to 135 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.

$3,774 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.
