What this record shows

Reporting peaked in 2020 at $164 and has fallen 69.2% since, to $50 in 2024.

Who reported the general payments

Medicare billing

Part B allowed, 2024
$77,586
Medicare patients
263
Services billed
561

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.
