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

30-day fills

13,978 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.

It is not a count of patients and not a measure of quality.

Part D drug cost

$517,771 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

Years since graduation

41 years (graduated 1985)

CMS Doctors and Clinicians data list 1985 as the year this clinician finished professional school.

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.

Guide: What Medicare assignment means

Telehealth (some services)

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.
