Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid
$990
Pharmacies billed $990 in 2024.
This is pharmacy cost, not the office bill, and not what patients paid.
Opioids were 40% of their Part D prescriptions (31 of 77) in 2024. A higher opioid share than 9 in 10 peers; the typical otolaryngology clinician is at 4%.
75 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $990 in drug cost · 21 antibiotic prescriptions to 21 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.
| Oxycodone | 29 | $37 | $1 |
