Medicaid work

$10,066 in 2023

Medicaid paid $10,066 for 240 billed services this clinician did in 2023, up to 28 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

$9,659

Pharmacies billed $9,659 in 2024.

Opioids were 0% of their Part D prescriptions (0 of 151) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical nurse practitioner clinician is at 0%.

135 generic and 16 brand-name prescriptions · $9,659 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.
