Medicaid work

$409 in 2023

Medicaid paid $409 for 14 billed services this clinician did in 2023, up to 14 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

$20,906

Pharmacies billed $20,906 in 2024.

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

Opioids were 7% of their Part D prescriptions (39 of 527) in 2024. A higher opioid share than 9 in 10 peers; the typical internal medicine clinician is at 1%.

493 generic and 34 brand-name prescriptions · $20,906 in drug cost · 81 antibiotic prescriptions to 69 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.
