Medicaid work

$97,730 in 2024

Medicaid paid $97,730 for 2,578 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 120 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.

Opioids were 6% of their Part D prescriptions (14 of 227) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical emergency medicine clinician is at 12%.

204 generic and 23 brand-name prescriptions · $6,210 in drug cost · 71 antibiotic prescriptions to 64 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.
