Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$15,201

Pharmacies billed $15,201 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 65% of their Part D prescriptions (259 of 399) in 2024. A higher opioid share than 9 in 10 peers; the typical orthopedic surgery clinician is at 31%.

394 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $15,201 in drug cost · 20 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.
