Medicaid work
$497 in 2024
Medicaid paid $497 for 242 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 43 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
$20,045
Pharmacies billed $20,045 in 2024.
This is pharmacy cost, not the office bill, and not what patients paid.

146 generic and 35 brand-name prescriptions · $20,045 in drug cost · 44 antibiotic prescriptions to 35 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.
