Medicaid work

$16,237 in 2024

Medicaid paid $16,237 for 361 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

$5,339

Pharmacies billed $5,339 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 17% of their Part D prescriptions (13 of 76) in 2024. A higher opioid share than 9 in 10 peers; the typical sleep medicine clinician is at 0%.

65 generic and 11 brand-name prescriptions · $5,339 in drug cost.

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.
