What this record shows

Reporting peaked in 2022 at $3,686 and has fallen 92.6% since, to $272 in 2025. That places this record below the midpoint for clinical cardiac electrophysiology clinicians in OR, where the typical reported total is $7,720.

What the payments were tied to

Products named in the reported payments. Only payments of $100 or more are attributed here — the typical reported payment nationally is a meal worth about $16, and listing those product-by-product would be noise.

Medicare billing

Part B allowed, 2024
$181,549
Medicare patients
4,154
Services billed
8,291

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.
