Original Medicare doctor bills

Medicare paid this office $51,280 for 68 people.
This is what Medicare paid the clinician — not Medicare Advantage, and not the pharmacy.

Who their Medicare patients are
68 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 71 · Women 46% · Also on Medicaid 19% · Health risk score 1.80. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical general surgery clinician is at 1.69.
Conditions among them: High blood pressure 75% · Diabetes 38% · Chronic kidney disease 26% · Atrial fibrillation 25% · Depression 25% · Coronary heart disease 24% · COPD 24% · Cancer 22%.
The office billed $238,757, Medicare allowed $64,194 and paid $51,280; for 219 services of 47 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.

Medicaid work
$1,370 in 2023
Medicaid paid $1,370 for 15 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.

Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid
$67,713
Pharmacies billed $67,713 in 2024.
This is pharmacy cost, not the office bill, and not what patients paid.
Opioids were 17% of their Part D prescriptions (13 of 75) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical general surgery clinician is at 34%. Surgeons prescribe little besides pain medicine after an operation, so their opioid share runs high.
38 generic and 37 brand-name prescriptions · $67,713 in drug cost · 11 antibiotic prescriptions.
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.
