$43,639

Medicare paid this office $43,639 for 197 people.

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

Procedures year by year

Times billed to Original Medicare each year. A blank year means fewer than 11 people had it, or none: Medicare does not publish smaller counts. Medicare Advantage patients are not included.

Who their Medicare patients are

197 Original Medicare patients in 2024. Average age 71 · Under 65 17% · 85 and older 8% · Women 51% · Also on Medicaid 67% · Health risk score 3.69. Sicker patients than 9 in 10 peers; the typical interventional radiology clinician is at 2.27.

Conditions among them: High blood pressure 75% · Diabetes 49% · Chronic kidney disease 48% · Coronary heart disease 38% · Heart failure 38% · Depression 30% · Atrial fibrillation 29% · Cancer 24% · COPD 23% · Dementia 19% · Stroke 17%.

The office billed $749,925, Medicare allowed $56,024 and paid $43,639; for 447 services of 90 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.

$453 in 2021

Medicaid paid $453 for 41 billed services this clinician did in 2021, up to 15 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.

$3,132 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.

Medicare did not publish checkup rates for this clinician.
