Medicaid work

$1,325 in 2024

Medicaid paid $1,325 for 129 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 25 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

$21,314

Pharmacies billed $21,314 in 2024.

177 generic and 27 brand-name prescriptions · $21,314 in drug cost · 28 antibiotic prescriptions to 24 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.
