$15,198 in 2024

Medicaid paid $15,198 for 86 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 18 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.

310 generic and 98 brand-name prescriptions · $180,615 in drug cost.
