Medicaid work

$1,908 in 2024

Medicaid paid $1,908 for 25 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 13 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

$20,339

Pharmacies billed $20,339 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 16% of their Part D prescriptions (39 of 248) in 2024. A higher opioid share than 9 in 10 peers; the typical family practice clinician is at 2%. Long-acting opioids: 46% of their opioid prescriptions.

212 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $20,339 in drug cost · 16 antibiotic prescriptions to 11 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.
