How many surgeons perform Hip Fracture — Hemiarthroplasty/Fixation in Kentucky?
16 Kentucky providers billed Medicare for Hip Fracture — Hemiarthroplasty/Fixation (CPT 27236) in CY2024. CMS suppresses providers with 10 or fewer Medicare patients, so the true count is somewhat higher.
Where does this data come from?
CMS Medicare Physician & Other Practitioners (fee-for-service Part B claims, CY2024, released May 2026) and CMS Open Payments. Both are official U.S. federal datasets.
