Original Medicare patients only. A risk score of 1.0 is the average Medicare patient; higher means sicker. Any count under 11 is hidden.

Medicaid work

Medicaid paid $108,279 for 1,985 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 88 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

$11,269

Pharmacies billed $11,269 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 28% of their Part D prescriptions (65 of 234) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical orthopedic surgery clinician is at 31%. Surgeons prescribe little besides pain medicine after an operation, so their opioid share runs high.

219 generic and 15 brand-name prescriptions · $11,269 in drug cost.

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.
