Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid
$424,326
Pharmacies billed $424,326 in 2024.
This is pharmacy cost, not the office bill, and not what patients paid.
Opioids were 0% of their Part D prescriptions (0 of 618) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical dermatology clinician is at 0%.
446 generic and 172 brand-name prescriptions · $424,326 in drug cost · 22 antibiotic prescriptions to 14 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.
