Expenditures and Services by Specialty Reports

The Expenditures and Services by Specialty reports provide data on Medicare Part B (outpatient/physician) services categorized by provider specialty. These reports show how much Medicare pays and how many services are delivered by different types of clinicians — such as surgeons, physicians, nurse practitioners, therapists, and others — including total allowed charges, Medicare payments, and service counts. They help illustrate how Medicare funds outpatient care across specialties and support analysis of utilization patterns and spending differences among provider types.
