Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid
$11,335
Pharmacies billed $11,335 in 2024.
This is pharmacy cost, not the office bill, and not what patients paid.

361 generic and 40 brand-name prescriptions · $11,335 in drug cost · 40 antibiotic prescriptions to 30 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.
