Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid
$7,314
Pharmacies billed $7,314 in 2024.
This is pharmacy cost, not the office bill, and not what patients paid.
Opioids were 6% of their Part D prescriptions (11 of 180) in 2024. Above the middle of the specialty; the typical internal medicine clinician is at 1%.
160 generic and 20 brand-name prescriptions · $7,314 in drug cost · 67 antibiotic prescriptions to 53 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.
