Year by year
| 2024 | 25 | 101 | 69 | 0.68 | $11,052 | $4,330 |
| 2023 | 791 | 4,967 | 75 | 0.89 | $473,277 | $176,923 |
Original Medicare only. A service billed for fewer than 11 people in a year is hidden, so the lines can add up to less than the year's total.

Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid
$79,646
Pharmacies billed $79,646 in 2024.
This is pharmacy cost, not the office bill, and not what patients paid.
Opioids were 0% of their Part D prescriptions (0 of 439) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical physician assistant clinician is at 1%.
421 generic and 18 brand-name prescriptions · $79,646 in drug cost · 22 antibiotic prescriptions to 19 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.
