Medicaid work

$232,970 in 2024

Medicaid paid $232,970 for 5,436 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 196 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

$4,571

Pharmacies billed $4,571 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 12% of their Part D prescriptions (56 of 489) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical emergency medicine clinician is at 12%.

475 generic and 14 brand-name prescriptions · $4,571 in drug cost · 90 antibiotic prescriptions to 74 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.
