Medicaid work

$629 in 2019

Medicaid paid $629 for 15 billed services this clinician did in 2019, up to 14 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

$330,497

Pharmacies billed $330,497 in 2024.

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

681 generic and 64 brand-name prescriptions · $330,497 in drug cost · 104 antibiotic prescriptions to 57 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.
