Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$6,403

Pharmacies billed $6,403 in 2024.

This is pharmacy cost, not the office bill, and not what patients paid.

Opioids were 30% of their Part D prescriptions (41 of 136) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical general surgery clinician is at 34%.

130 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $6,403 in drug cost.

Part D prescriptions only. The opioid rate is opioid prescriptions as a share of all this clinician's Part D prescriptions; surgeons and pain specialists run higher than others, so it is shown against the same specialty.

Largest Part D drug costs
