Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$73,811

Pharmacies billed $73,811 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 1% of their Part D prescriptions (12 of 1,071) in 2024. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical nurse practitioner clinician is at 0%.

937 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $73,811 in drug cost · 155 antibiotic prescriptions to 115 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.
