This is what Medicare paid the clinician — not Medicare Advantage, and not the pharmacy.

Procedures year by year

Times billed to Original Medicare each year. A blank year means fewer than 11 people had it, or none: Medicare does not publish smaller counts. Medicare Advantage patients are not included.

Year by year

Original Medicare only. A service billed for fewer than 11 people in a year is hidden, so the lines can add up to less than the year's total.

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

Opioids were 62% of their 26 Part D prescriptions in 2022. Too few prescriptions to judge: with under about 50 a year, a handful of patients can swing this share.

Part D prescriptions only. A drug prescribed to fewer than 11 people in a year is hidden.
