Medicaid work

$690 in 2021

Medicaid paid $690 for 19 billed services this clinician did in 2021, up to 13 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

$15,332

Pharmacies billed $15,332 in 2024.

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

62 generic and 12 brand-name prescriptions · $15,332 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.
