Original Medicare patients only. A risk score of 1.0 is the average Medicare patient; higher means sicker. Any count under 11 is hidden.

$36,679 in 2024

Medicaid paid $36,679 for 259 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 23 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

$4,335

Pharmacies billed $4,335 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 14% of their Part D prescriptions (19 of 141) in 2024. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical emergency medicine clinician is at 12%.

127 generic and 14 brand-name prescriptions · $4,335 in drug cost · 31 antibiotic prescriptions to 29 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.
