Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$30,944

Pharmacies billed $30,944 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 4% of their Part D prescriptions (12 of 311) in 2024. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical internal medicine clinician is at 1%.

266 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $30,944 in drug cost · 39 antibiotic prescriptions to 30 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.
