212 Medicare services, 2024 (ranked within specialty)
Medicare volume is ranked against active providers in the same specialty. Signals a provider has no public data for (e.g. Medicare claims) are left out of the score entirely — never counted as zero — so providers without that data are not penalized.

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) |

| Emergency Department Visit With High Level of Medical Decision Making99285 | 95 | $150 |
| Routine Electrocardiogram (ecg) Using at Least 12 Leads With Interpretation and Report Only93010 | 57 | $7 |

| Critical Care, First 30-74 Minutes99291 | 22 | $187 |
Typical Medicare-allowed amounts for these services range $7–$187 (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.
