How this compares

Too few orthopaedic surgery of the spine providers in Montanato place this figure against a meaningful peer group, so we don't.

Medicare billing

Part B allowed, 2024

$354,365

Medicare patients

310

Services billed

1,499

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.

Most prescribed under Part D

Drug	Claims	Cost to plans & patients
Diclofenac Sodium	135	$1,541
Oxycodone-AcetaminophenOxycodone Hcl/Acetaminophen	104	$1,224
