Medicaid work
$2,646 in 2024
Medicaid paid $2,646 for 51 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 14 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.

Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid
$20,692
Pharmacies billed $20,692 in 2024.
This is pharmacy cost, not the office bill, and not what patients paid.
Opioids were 25% of their Part D prescriptions (26 of 103) in 2024. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical vascular surgery clinician is at 11%.
72 generic and 31 brand-name prescriptions · $20,692 in drug cost · 17 antibiotic prescriptions.
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.
