Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid
$27,183
Pharmacies billed $27,183 in 2024.
This is pharmacy cost, not the office bill, and not what patients paid.

127 generic and 17 brand-name prescriptions · $27,183 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.
