Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$327,078

Opioids were 0% of their Part D prescriptions (0 of 669) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical endocrinology clinician is at 0%.

411 generic and 226 brand-name prescriptions · $327,078 in drug cost.

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.
