BETOS Reports

The Berenson‑Eggers Type of Service (BETOS) report provides a high-level view of Medicare Part B service utilization and spending by grouping similar healthcare services into clinically meaningful categories. Instead of analyzing thousands of individual procedure codes, BETOS organizes them into broader service types—such as evaluation and management visits, procedures, imaging, tests, and durable medical equipment—making it easier for analysts and policymakers to understand patterns in healthcare delivery, monitor trends in physician services, and evaluate Medicare spending across different types of outpatient care.
