Medicaid work

$19,878 in 2024

Medicaid paid $19,878 for 643 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 27 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

$5,161

Pharmacies billed $5,161 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 30% of their Part D prescriptions (32 of 108) in 2024. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical physical medicine and rehabilitation clinician is at 12%. Long-acting opioids: 34% of their opioid prescriptions.

102 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $5,161 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.
