Medicaid work

$18,607 in 2024

Medicaid paid $18,607 for 389 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 23 people in a month for one service.

Medicaid and CHIP claims where this clinician did the service, fee-for-service and managed care together. Any month with fewer than 11 patients is hidden, so small Medicaid practices undercount.

Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$25,975

Pharmacies billed $25,975 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 23% of their Part D prescriptions (36 of 157) in 2024. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical vascular surgery clinician is at 11%. Surgeons prescribe little besides pain medicine after an operation, so their opioid share runs high.

135 generic and 22 brand-name prescriptions · $25,975 in drug cost · 14 antibiotic prescriptions.

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.
