Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$7,605

Pharmacies billed $7,605 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 0% of their Part D prescriptions (0 of 141) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical physician assistant clinician is at 1%.

111 generic and 30 brand-name prescriptions · $7,605 in drug cost · 56 antibiotic prescriptions to 51 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.
