Original Medicare patients only. A risk score of 1.0 is the average Medicare patient; higher means sicker. Any count under 11 is hidden.

Medicaid work

$112,107 in 2024

Medicaid paid $112,107 for 2,049 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 136 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

$131,728

Pharmacies billed $131,728 in 2024.

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

559 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $131,728 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.
