Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$175

Pharmacies billed $175 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 38% of their Part D prescriptions (21 of 56) in 2024. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical plastic and reconstructive surgery clinician is at 28%.

55 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $175 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.
