Medicaid work
$17,814 in 2024
Medicaid paid $17,814 for 1,705 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 54 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
$10,746
Pharmacies billed $10,746 in 2024.
This is pharmacy cost, not the office bill, and not what patients paid.
Opioids were 30% of their Part D prescriptions (280 of 940) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical orthopedic surgery clinician is at 31%.
937 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $10,746 in drug cost · 54 antibiotic prescriptions to 26 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.
