3,750 generic and 282 brand-name prescriptions · $127,222 in drug cost · 78 antibiotic prescriptions to 54 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.
