A missing listing does not mean out of network. Directories change, and a listing does not cover every office. Call Dr. Chao’s office at (650) 723-4000 to confirm they take your plan. Ask about the office you use, its medical group, referrals and appointments.

Original Medicare doctor bills

$9,942

Original Medicare only. A service billed for fewer than 11 people in a year is hidden, so the lines can add up to less than the year's total.

Medicaid work

$4,767 in 2021

Medicaid paid $4,767 for 58 billed services this clinician did in 2021, 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

$358

Pharmacies billed $358 in 2024.

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

24 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $358 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.
