Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid
$3,796
Pharmacies billed $3,796 in 2024.

151 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $3,796 in drug cost · 43 antibiotic prescriptions to 32 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.
