Procedures Medicare counted

Who their Medicare patients are

785 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 78 · Under 65 3% · 85 and older 25% · Women 52% · Also on Medicaid 37% · Health risk score 1.43. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical cardiology clinician is at 1.71.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 75% · Coronary heart disease 75% · Atrial fibrillation 46% · Diabetes 41% · Chronic kidney disease 28% · Heart failure 20% · Cancer 16% · Depression 16% · Stroke 14% · COPD 13% · Dementia 12%.

The office billed $2,906,270, Medicare allowed $1,819,887 and paid $1,449,382; for 7,954 services of 59 kinds; $5,046 of it was for drugs given in the office and $1,444,336 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.

$608 in 2024

Medicaid paid $608 for 348 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 28 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.

$1,244,208

Pharmacies billed $1,244,208 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 0% of their Part D prescriptions (0 of 5,009) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical cardiology clinician is at 0%.

4,039 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $1,244,208 in drug cost · 25 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.
