Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$1,324,341

Pharmacies billed $1,324,341 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 0% of their Part D prescriptions (0 of 5,820) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical interventional cardiology clinician is at 0%.

4,840 generic and 980 brand-name prescriptions · $1,324,341 in drug cost · 34 antibiotic prescriptions to 23 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.
