Medicaid work

$1,321 in 2024

Medicaid paid $1,321 for 36 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 12 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

$40,666

Pharmacies billed $40,666 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 7% of their Part D prescriptions (11 of 169) in 2024. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical otolaryngology clinician is at 4%.

157 generic and 12 brand-name prescriptions · $40,666 in drug cost · 13 antibiotic prescriptions to 12 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.
