Medicaid work

$5,445 in 2024

Medicaid paid $5,445 for 573 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 31 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

$270,656

Pharmacies billed $270,656 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 360) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical internal medicine clinician is at 1%.

232 generic and 128 brand-name prescriptions · $270,656 in drug cost · 77 antibiotic prescriptions to 17 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.
