Medicaid work

$148,912 in 2024

Medicaid paid $148,912 for 1,829 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 56 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

$32,158

Pharmacies billed $32,158 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 5% of their Part D prescriptions (12 of 233) in 2024. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical family practice clinician is at 2%.

195 generic and 38 brand-name prescriptions · $32,158 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.
