Original Medicare only. A service billed for fewer than 11 people in a year is hidden, so the lines can add up to less than the year's total.

Medicaid work

$6,731 in 2022

Medicaid paid $6,731 for 168 billed services this clinician did in 2022, up to 20 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

$758

Pharmacies billed $758 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 40% of their Part D prescriptions (27 of 67) in 2024. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical general surgery clinician is at 34%.

62 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $758 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.
