Medicaid work

$18,304 in 2024

Medicaid paid $18,304 for 661 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 45 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

$79,354

Pharmacies billed $79,354 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 20% of their Part D prescriptions (164 of 816) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical pain management clinician is at 44%. Long-acting opioids: 30% of their opioid prescriptions.

725 generic and 91 brand-name prescriptions · $79,354 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.
