A missing listing does not mean out of network. Directories change, and a listing does not cover every office. Call Dr. Aguirre’s office at (925) 676-2600 to confirm they take your plan. Ask about the office you use, its medical group, referrals and appointments.

Medicaid work
$144 in 2019
Medicaid paid $144 for 42 billed services this clinician did in 2019, up to 13 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
$24,593
Pharmacies billed $24,593 in 2024.
This is pharmacy cost, not the office bill, and not what patients paid.
Opioids were 25% of their Part D prescriptions (38 of 151) in 2024. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical vascular surgery clinician is at 11%. Surgeons prescribe little besides pain medicine after an operation, so their opioid share runs high.
129 generic and 22 brand-name prescriptions · $24,593 in drug cost · 25 antibiotic prescriptions to 17 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.
