Medicaid work

$9,779 in 2024

Medicaid paid $9,779 for 284 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 21 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

$103,343

Pharmacies billed $103,343 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 0% of their Part D prescriptions (0 of 1,159) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical physician assistant clinician is at 1%.

984 generic and 148 brand-name prescriptions · $103,343 in drug cost · 13 antibiotic prescriptions.

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.
