Medicaid work

$787,331 in 2024

Medicaid paid $787,331 for 16,561 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 349 people in a month for one service.

Medicaid and CHIP claims where this clinician did the service, fee-for-service and managed care together. Any month with fewer than 11 patients is hidden, so small Medicaid practices undercount.

Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$1,764,783

Pharmacies billed $1,764,783 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 3% of their Part D prescriptions (368 of 12,891) in 2024. A higher opioid share than 9 in 10 peers; the typical cardiology clinician is at 0%.

10,924 generic and 1,948 brand-name prescriptions · $1,764,783 in drug cost · 236 antibiotic prescriptions to 176 people · 90 antipsychotic prescriptions to people over 65.

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.
