Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$2,056

Pharmacies billed $2,056 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 14% of their Part D prescriptions (12 of 85) in 2024. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical physician assistant clinician is at 1%.

79 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $2,056 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.
