Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$1,535,457

Pharmacies billed $1,535,457 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 0% of their Part D prescriptions (0 of 215) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical critical care (intensivists) clinician is at 0%.

89 generic and 126 brand-name prescriptions · $1,535,457 in drug cost · 32 antibiotic prescriptions to 12 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.
