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

$241,956

Pharmacies billed $241,956 in 2024.

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

1,433 generic and 284 brand-name prescriptions · $241,956 in drug cost · 17 antibiotic prescriptions · 17 antipsychotic prescriptions to people over 65.

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.
