Medicaid work
$756 in 2020
Medicaid paid $756 for 32 billed services this clinician did in 2020, up to 16 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
$178,839
Pharmacies billed $178,839 in 2024.
This is pharmacy cost, not the office bill, and not what patients paid.
Opioids were 2% of their Part D prescriptions (49 of 2,641) in 2024. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical internal medicine clinician is at 1%.
2,421 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $178,839 in drug cost · 23 antibiotic prescriptions to 17 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.
