How this compares

$204,699 in reported general payments places this provider in the 90th percentile of 259 gastroenterology providers in South Carolina.

Medicare billing

Part B allowed, 2024

$268,127

Medicare patients

1,171

Services billed

1,799

What this is not: this is the amount Original Medicare Part B allowed for services this provider billed in 2024. It is not their income. It excludes Medicare Advantage — now more than half of all Medicare enrollment — along with Medicaid and all commercial insurance, and it is gross practice revenue before staff, rent, supplies and malpractice premiums. CMS also suppresses any figure covering ten or fewer patients, so low-volume providers appear smaller than they are.
