Medicaid work

$36 in 2021

Medicaid paid $36 for 25 billed services this clinician did in 2021, up to 12 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.

Largest Medicaid services in 2021

Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$89

Pharmacies billed $89 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 65% of their Part D prescriptions (13 of 20) in 2024. Too few prescriptions to compare fairly with other clinicians.

19 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $89 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.

Largest Part D drug costs
