Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid
$1,335
Pharmacies billed $1,335 in 2024.
This is pharmacy cost, not the office bill, and not what patients paid.
Opioids were 36% of their Part D prescriptions (35 of 98) in 2024. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical general surgery clinician is at 34%. Surgeons prescribe little besides pain medicine after an operation, so their opioid share runs high.
96 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $1,335 in drug cost · 22 antibiotic prescriptions to 16 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.
