Areas of care they bill for
Critical care
Worked out from the procedure codes on their Medicare and Medicaid claims, most-billed first. A billing code names a procedure, not a diagnosis, so this is the area they work in — not a list of conditions they treat, and not a statement that they take a particular case. Ask the practice.
Degrees, board certification and disciplinary history are not independently verified — see About this data below.

How this doctor appears in EasySTD
These are candidate pathways derived from specialty and registry identity. They are not service claims.
STD and STI care candidate
CMS specialty and practice data indicate that this clinician may be able to evaluate symptoms or arrange laboratory testing during a visit. The registry does not prove that STD testing is offered, appointments are available, or a referral is unnecessary.

The Merit-based Incentive Payment System adjusts what Medicare pays a clinician based on what they report across quality, cost, interoperability and improvement activities. It is a payment programme, not a clinical quality grade: taking part is optional for many clinicians, the scoring rules reset every year, and small practices and facility-based clinicians are scored on different bases. Do not read it as a ranking, and do not compare one year to another. Source: CMS Provider Data Catalog.

About the specialty
What infectious disease doctors do, and how to choose one
Also searched as: infectious disease specialist · ID doctor · HIV doctor · travel medicine.
What infectious disease doctors do
An infectious disease physician is an internist with fellowship training in infections: HIV, hepatitis, tuberculosis, sexually transmitted infections, bone and joint infections, complicated or resistant infections, fevers of unknown origin, travel medicine and immunisation, and infection control in hospitals.
How to choose one
Ask the physician's focus (HIV, hepatitis, general ID, travel), whether they offer PrEP and sexual-health services if that is what you need, telehealth, and insurance. Board certification is through ABIM (infectious disease). The directory shows practice locations, affiliations and Medicare participation.
Infectious disease physicians bill Medicare widely; affiliations and groups are well populated. For STI testing and treatment specifically, the STD testing location pages on this site list clinics by place; this directory lists the physicians.

What they treat and do
CMS publishes each clinician's Medicare fee-for-service activity. These are counts from claims, not a self-reported list of interests — and they describe one payer's population in one year, not the whole practice, not a quality score, and not proof that a service is offered today. The allowed amount is what Medicare approved across their billing — an aggregate program figure, not a patient's cost, a quote, or a fee schedule.
Most-billed services, by Medicare patients
- Hospital follow-up visit 499 patients HCPCS 99232 · 1,274 services · Hospital Inpatient Services · Medicare allows about $81 each
- Hospital admission visit 199 patients HCPCS 99222 · 210 services · Hospital Inpatient Services · Medicare allows about $173 each
- Critical care 18 patients HCPCS 99291 · 23 services · Critical Care Services · Medicare allows about $218 each

Claims come from HHS Open Data's Medicaid Provider Spending file, aggregated from state T-MSIS submissions through December 2024; states report with a lag. Enrollment history comes from the T-MSIS provider enrollment segments states submitted for January 2018 through December 2024 — a dated record whose last status may have changed since. Neither is a guarantee they accept new Medicaid patients or your specific managed-care plan — confirm with the office before scheduling.

What they do for Medicaid patients
Procedures this doctor rendered on Medicaid, CHIP, and Medicaid managed-care claims from January 2018 through December 2024, most-billed first. Medicare's public file covers only Medicare patients; this is the rest of the practice.

HCPCS 99255 · 42 claim lines · up to 15 patients in a month · Medicaid paid about $132 a line · May 2019 – Jul 2020
From HHS Open Data's Medicaid Provider Spending by HCPCS file, aggregated from state T-MSIS submissions. Claim lines count lines, not visits; a code with no public name shows as its HCPCS code. States report with a lag, so 2024 is likely incomplete. A paid amount is what the state paid per claim line across the whole span, not a price you would be charged. Past Medicaid claims are not a guarantee the clinician accepts Medicaid today — confirm with the office.

What Medicare pays for an office visit here
- First visit as a new patient
- $123 · your share about $31 Most-used code 99204
- Follow-up visit
- $94 · your share about $23 Most-used code 99214
CMS's commonest Medicare amount for internal medicine in ZIP 40202, and the coinsurance a Medicare patient pays after the deductible. It is the Medicare rate for this area and specialty, not a quote from this practice, and it does not apply to commercial insurance or a cash price.
They are enrolled in Medicare (PECOS) and eligible to order and refer. This directory does not hold which commercial or Medicaid plans they accept or whether they are taking new patients. Where a service lists a Medicare-allowed amount, that is the fee schedule Medicare and its patient pay together — not this practice's charge, and not what you would pay with commercial insurance or in cash. Confirm coverage and price with the practice before you go. These public bodies can help you orient:

Sources and limitations
- CMS National Plan and Provider Enumeration System
National NPI identity, self-reported taxonomy, registry dates, and primary/secondary practice addresses. CMS states that an NPI does not validate licensure or credentials.
CMS/NPPES file dated September 14, 2026
- CMS Group Public Reporting — practice quality, ACO and patient survey
Scored MIPS measures, accountable care organisation membership and the CAHPS patient survey for the group this clinician bills under. A group score belongs to the group, not to the clinician, and the CAHPS survey is voluntary — most practices publish none.
- CMS Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) — PY 2023
CMS's own score for this clinician under the Medicare Merit-based Incentive Payment System, published per performance year. MIPS adjusts Medicare payment on quality, cost, interoperability and improvement-activity reporting — participation is uneven, the scoring rules reset each year, and facility-based and small-practice clinicians are scored on different bases. It is not a clinical quality grade, not an outcome measure, and not comparable between clinicians or across years.
CMS/NPPES file dated November 18, 2025
- CMS Provider of Services — Clinical Laboratories (CLIA)
A CLIA-certified laboratory registered at this clinician's practice address and under the same entity name, matched on street, ZIP, and a shared name — an on-site testing capability, not a claim that any specific test is offered today.
- HHS Open Data — Medicaid Provider Enrollment Segments (T-MSIS; KY, VA, IL)
Which state Medicaid and CHIP programs enrolled this clinician between January 2018 and December 2024, per the enrollment segments states submitted to T-MSIS. A dated history, not a current directory: the status shown is the last segment's, and states report with a lag.
CMS/NPPES file dated July 24, 2026
- HHS Open Data — Medicaid Provider Spending by HCPCS (T-MSIS)
Procedures this clinician rendered as the servicing provider on Medicaid, CHIP, and Medicaid managed-care claims, January 2018 through December 2024, aggregated by HHS from state T-MSIS submissions. Counts are claim lines and patient-months as the states reported them; 2024 is likely incomplete. Medicaid activity in the past is not a promise the clinician accepts Medicaid today.
CMS/NPPES file dated February 9, 2026
- CMS Revalidation Reassignment List
Medicare reassignment and employment records tying this clinician's NPI to a group PAC ID, resolved to an organization NPI through the CMS Public Provider Enrollment file. A tie is an enrollment relationship; it does not prove current employment, that care is delivered at that organization's address, or appointment availability.

- CMS Order and Referring
Current Medicare fee-for-service ordering and referring eligibility fields from PECOS. Eligibility does not promise that this clinician will order an item or service for a particular patient, or establish coverage, medical necessity, or appointment access.

A useful call-ahead checklist
- Does this clinician still practice at this address?
- Are they accepting new patients, and how soon is the next appointment?
- Can the visit include the STD or pregnancy test you need?
- Is a referral required, and what will insurance or self-pay cost?
- Will testing use an on-site lab, an outside lab, or a separate collection visit?
