From the Wall Street Medicare billing database in 2015, I find a Dr J. P. WEISS, 324 TENTH AVE 206 | SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH. Assume the middle initial P is for Peter.
I selected the following procedure codes that relate to Afib. Note that CODE 93657-F is probably the most significant for ablations.
CODE: 93656-F: Evaluation and insertion of catheters for recording, pacing, and treatment of abnormal heart rhythm
CODE: 93655-F: Insertion of catheters for treatment of abnormal heart rhythm
CODE: 93613-F: Insertion of catheters for 3D mapping of electrical impulses to heart muscles
CODE: 93657-F: Destruction of tissue of right or left upper heart chamber via catheter for treatment of abnormal heart rhythm (RFI - no cryo)
CODE: 93462-F: Insertion of catheter into left heart for diagnosis
CODE: 93621-F: Insertion of catheters for recording, pacing, and attempted induction of abnormal rhythm in left upper heart
What shows below are the number of procedures performed by Dr Weiss for Medicare patients billed only in 2015:
CODE: 93656-F: 23 - Top 60% nationally
CODE: 93655-F: 21 - Top 60% nationally
CODE: 93613-F: 34 - Top 40% nationally
CODE: 93657-F: 11 - Bottom 20% nationally
CODE: 93462-F: 15 - Top 60% nationally
CODE: 93621-F: 23 - Top 40% nationally
The corresponding number of procedures performed by Dr Natale for Medicare patients billed only in 2015:
CODE: 93656-F: 130 - Top 20% nationally
CODE: 93655-F: 159 - Top 20% nationally
CODE: 93613-F: 165 - Top 20% nationally
CODE: 93657-F: 101 - Top 20% nationally
CODE: 93462-F: 32 - Top 20% nationally
CODE: 93621-F: 32 - Top 20% nationally
