Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$303,866

Pharmacies billed $303,866 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 67% of their Part D prescriptions (2,282 of 3,430) in 2024. A higher opioid share than 9 in 10 peers; the typical nurse practitioner clinician is at 0%. Long-acting opioids: 28% of their opioid prescriptions.

3,127 generic and 303 brand-name prescriptions · $303,866 in drug cost · 12 antipsychotic prescriptions to people over 65.

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.
