Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$66,245

Pharmacies billed $66,245 in 2024.

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

429 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $66,245 in drug cost · 47 antibiotic prescriptions to 42 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.
