Frequently Asked Questions

Is Katawczik experienced with endoscopic vein harvest?
Based on Medicare claims data, Katawczik performed 42 endoscopic vein harvest services. These records cover Medicare fee-for-service activity, including eligible younger beneficiaries; they do not measure total practice volume or clinical quality.
Does Katawczik receive payments from pharmaceutical companies?

Disclosure alone does not establish their legality or effect on care.

How do Katawczik's costs compare to other surgical physician assistants in Naples?
Katawczik's average Medicare payment per service is $99. Note that these figures represent what Medicare pays, not your out-of-pocket cost, which depends on your specific insurance plan and deductible. Procedure-level data above shows both what was submitted and what Medicare paid for each service type.
What does Data Coverage mean?
Data Coverage (currently Very High for Katawczik) measures how much public federal data is available about a provider. It is not a quality rating. A "Very High" or "High" level means the provider has data across multiple federal sources (NPPES, PECOS, Medicare Utilization, Open Payments), indicating the presence of registry, enrollment, activity or payment records, not verified experience or clinical quality. A "Low" or "Moderate" level may simply mean the provider is newer, does not see Medicare patients, or has not received any industry payments — none of which are inherently negative.
