Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$22,129

Pharmacies billed $22,129 in 2024.

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

174 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $22,129 in drug cost · 57 antibiotic prescriptions to 51 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.

Creon11$4,402$400
Doxycycline Hyclate15$111$7
Cephalexin13$52$4
