Medicare-allowed amount

About $17,996 in 2024

The total amount Medicare approved for these services in 2024. It includes what Medicare paid and what patients or their other insurance owed, such as the deductible and coinsurance.

What this does not show: Medicare-allowed amount

This is not the clinician's income. Part of it can go to a clinic or group practice, staff, equipment or drugs. It is not the price you will pay.

Paid by Medicare

About $13,015 in 2024

The part of the Medicare-allowed amount that Medicare itself paid in 2024, after patients' deductibles and coinsurance.

30-day fills

1,750 standardized 30-day fills in 2024

CMS converts prescriptions to 30-day supplies so they can be compared. A 90-day prescription counts as about three 30-day fills.

$45,753 in 2024

The total cost of these prescriptions in 2024, paid by Medicare drug plans, patients and other payers together.

What this does not show: Part D drug cost

Open Payments general payments, program year 2025

All general payments: $78.41 across 2 records.

Reporting-company totals

  • Boston Scientific Corporation: $56.84 across 1 record.

Years since graduation

12 years (graduated 2014)

CMS Doctors and Clinicians data list 2014 as the year this clinician finished professional school.

What this does not show: Years since graduation

NPI first issued

2013

The year this clinician's National Provider Identifier (NPI) was issued. An NPI is a unique 10-digit ID that US health care providers use for billing.

What this does not show: Telehealth (some services)

It does not mean all services are offered by telehealth, or that telehealth is covered by your plan.
