Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid
$47,642
Pharmacies billed $47,642 in 2024.
This is pharmacy cost, not the office bill, and not what patients paid.
Opioids were 8% of their Part D prescriptions (46 of 546) in 2024. A higher opioid share than 9 in 10 peers; the typical family practice clinician is at 2%. Long-acting opioids: 33% of their opioid prescriptions.
478 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $47,642 in drug cost · 14 antibiotic prescriptions.
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.
