Medicaid work

$12,845 in 2024

Medicaid paid $12,845 for 1,187 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 54 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

$52,522

Pharmacies billed $52,522 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 3% of their Part D prescriptions (18 of 531) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical hospitalist clinician is at 4%.

431 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $52,522 in drug cost · 46 antibiotic prescriptions to 37 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.
