Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$2,877,807

Pharmacies billed $2,877,807 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 3% of their Part D prescriptions (27 of 907) in 2024. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical nurse practitioner clinician is at 0%.

616 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $2,877,807 in drug cost · 33 antibiotic prescriptions to 18 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.
