Medicaid work

$176 in 2022

Medicaid paid $176 for 41 billed services this clinician did in 2022, 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

$2,018

Pharmacies billed $2,018 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 41% of their Part D prescriptions (43 of 105) in 2024. A higher opioid share than 9 in 10 peers; the typical physician assistant clinician is at 1%.

102 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $2,018 in drug cost · 11 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.
