$33,471 in 2024

Medicaid paid $33,471 for 715 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 34 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

$4,162,894

Pharmacies billed $4,162,894 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 2% of their Part D prescriptions (21 of 1,211) in 2024. At or below the middle of the specialty; the typical hematology-oncology clinician is at 5%.

795 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $4,162,894 in drug cost · 27 antibiotic prescriptions to 22 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.
