Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid
$131,744
Pharmacies billed $131,744 in 2024.
This is pharmacy cost, not the office bill, and not what patients paid.
Opioids were 71% of their Part D prescriptions (394 of 556) in 2024. A higher opioid share than 9 in 10 peers; the typical anesthesiology clinician is at 0%. Long-acting opioids: 32% of their opioid prescriptions.
496 generic and 60 brand-name prescriptions · $131,744 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.
