A missing listing does not mean out of network. Directories change, and a listing does not cover every office. Call Dr. Vira’s office to confirm they take your plan. Ask about the office you use, its medical group, referrals and appointments.

Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$8,892

Pharmacies billed $8,892 in 2024.

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

227 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $8,892 in drug cost · 28 antibiotic prescriptions to 23 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.
