30-day fills

32 standardized 30-day fills in 2020

$282 in 2020

The total cost of these prescriptions in 2020, paid by Medicare drug plans, patients and other payers together.

What this does not show: Part D drug cost

Years since graduation

15 years (graduated 2011)

CMS Doctors and Clinicians data list 2011 as the year this clinician finished professional school.

Accepts Medicare assignment

CMS data list this clinician as accepting Medicare assignment. This means agreeing to take the Medicare-approved amount as full payment for covered services.

Medicare assignment applies to Original Medicare. It does not tell you whether the clinician is in a Medicare Advantage plan's network, accepts other insurance, or is taking new patients.

Source: CMS Doctors and Clinicians; Medicare.gov, “Does your provider accept Medicare as full payment?”

Guide: What Medicare assignment means

No telehealth indicator

CMS shows this indicator only when recent Medicare claims include telehealth services. The clinician may still offer telehealth; ask the office.
