What this provider does (Medicare)

Based on Medicare fee-for-service claims, 2024; not all care is captured.

Service (HCPCS)	Medicare services	Typical Medicare-allowed (2024)
Subsequent Hospital Care With Moderate Levelof Medical Decision Making, If Using Time, at Least 50 Minutes99233	113	$112
Hospital Discharge Day Management, More Than 30 Minutes99239	44	$107

Initial Hospital Care With Moderate Level of Medical Decision Making, If Using Time, at Least 75 Minutes99223	25	$163

Typical Medicare-allowed amounts for these services range $74–$163 (2024). The Medicare-allowed amount is what Medicare recognizes for a service under fee-for-service — a reference figure for 2024, not a price quote and not what you would be billed. Medicare Part B covers roughly an eighth of all NPIs (65+ skew); services with fewer than 11 beneficiaries are suppressed by CMS.

Transparency — industry payments

Based on CMS Open Payments, 2024; not all care is captured.

$135 across 1 record (Open Payments 2024)

Open Payments discloses payments and transfers of value (meals, travel, consulting, research, royalties) from drug and device makers to providers. This is a transparency signal, not a verdict — such payments are legal and common, and their presence is neither an endorsement nor a criticism. Source: CMS Open Payments, program year 2024.
