A missing listing does not mean out of network. Directories change, and a listing does not cover every office. Call Dr. Ramakumar’s office at (408) 317-7297 to confirm they take your plan. Ask about the office you use, its medical group, referrals and appointments.

Medicaid work
$858 in 2019

Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid
$496
Pharmacies billed $496 in 2024.
This is pharmacy cost, not the office bill, and not what patients paid.
Opioids were 0% of their Part D prescriptions (0 of 127) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical dentist clinician is at 0%.
127 generic and 0 brand-name prescriptions · $496 in drug cost · 68 antibiotic prescriptions to 49 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.
