Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$69,933

Pharmacies billed $69,933 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 3% of their Part D prescriptions (17 of 584) in 2024. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical urology clinician is at 2%.

498 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $69,933 in drug cost · 50 antibiotic prescriptions to 45 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.
