Pharmacies billed $320,953 in 2024.

429 generic and 130 brand-name prescriptions · $320,953 in drug cost · 28 antibiotic prescriptions to 14 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.
