Medicaid work
$922 in 2021
Medicaid paid $922 for 31 billed services this clinician did in 2021, up to 16 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
$1,321
Pharmacies billed $1,321 in 2024.
This is pharmacy cost, not the office bill, and not what patients paid.
Opioids were 45% of their Part D prescriptions (13 of 29) in 2024. Too few prescriptions to judge: with under about 50 a year, a handful of patients can swing this share.
29 generic and 0 brand-name prescriptions · $1,321 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.
