(dba Corza Medical) at 44.9% of the total. That places this record below the midpoint for cardiovascular disease clinicians in TN, where the typical reported total is $1,892.

Medicare billing

Part B allowed, 2024
$4,236
Medicare patients
24
Services billed
48

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.
