Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$221,532

Pharmacies billed $221,532 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 3% of their Part D prescriptions (52 of 1,639) in 2024. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical internal medicine clinician is at 1%.

1,408 generic and 214 brand-name prescriptions · $221,532 in drug cost · 34 antibiotic prescriptions to 27 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.
