Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid
$22,486
Pharmacies billed $22,486 in 2024.
This is pharmacy cost, not the office bill, and not what patients paid.
Opioids were 32% of their Part D prescriptions (454 of 1,411) in 2024. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical physician assistant clinician is at 1%.
1,402 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $22,486 in drug cost · 209 antibiotic prescriptions to 167 people.
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.
