Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$834

Pharmacies billed $834 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 23% of their Part D prescriptions (18 of 77) in 2024. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical podiatry clinician is at 5%.

76 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $834 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.
