Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$10,230

Pharmacies billed $10,230 in 2024.

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

183 generic and 11 brand-name prescriptions · $10,230 in drug cost · 26 antibiotic prescriptions to 20 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.
