Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$6,916

Pharmacies billed $6,916 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 20% of their Part D prescriptions (18 of 91) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical orthopedic surgery clinician is at 31%.

87 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $6,916 in drug cost · 15 antibiotic prescriptions to 11 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.
