Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$2,755

Pharmacies billed $2,755 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 47% of their Part D prescriptions (34 of 73) in 2024. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical neurosurgery clinician is at 28%. Surgeons prescribe little besides pain medicine after an operation, so their opioid share runs high.

69 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $2,755 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.
