Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$276,806

Pharmacies billed $276,806 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 2% of their Part D prescriptions (15 of 813) in 2024. A higher opioid share than 9 in 10 peers; the typical gastroenterology clinician is at 0%.

732 generic and 81 brand-name prescriptions · $276,806 in drug cost · 51 antibiotic prescriptions to 20 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.
