Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$11,731

Pharmacies billed $11,731 in 2024.

176 generic and 18 brand-name prescriptions · $11,731 in drug cost · 42 antibiotic prescriptions to 32 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.
