Medicaid work

Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$182,599

Pharmacies billed $182,599 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 3% of their Part D prescriptions (63 of 2,159) in 2024. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical internal medicine clinician is at 1%.

1,869 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $182,599 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.
