A missing listing does not mean out of network. Directories change, and a listing does not cover every office. Call Dr. Puccinelli’s office at (408) 252-1970 to confirm they take your plan. Ask about the office you use, its medical group, referrals and appointments.

Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$1,232

Pharmacies billed $1,232 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 17% of their Part D prescriptions (24 of 139) in 2024. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical dentist clinician is at 0%.

139 generic and 0 brand-name prescriptions · $1,232 in drug cost · 110 antibiotic prescriptions to 102 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.
