CMS reports a program year at a time and also publishes its own total across them, which is what the figures above are. These rows are that total taken apart, not a second set of payments.
CMS’s file covers 2019–2025. It holds no payments to Jennifer Ballinger in 2019–2021.

Medicare prescribing
What this provider billed to Medicare Part D in 2024, as CMS published it. Medicare Part D only: what they prescribed outside it is not here.
- 326
- Claims
- Prescriptions and refills billed to Part D, as CMS counts them.
- $1,563
- Total drug cost
- What Part D, the plan and the patient paid together. Not what this provider was paid — they are paid nothing out of it.
- 203
- Beneficiaries
- People with at least one prescription from this provider.
- Withheld
- Brand-name claims
- Of the claims above, those for a brand-name drug. CMS withheld this value and marked it "*". It publishes two markers and two reasons — a value between 1 and 10, or one withheld so another cannot be worked out — without saying which marker means which.
- 318
- Generic claims
- Of the claims above, those for a generic.
- 59
- Opioid claims
- CMS puts this provider's opioid prescribing rate at 18.098159509202453% of their claims. That is their figure, computed from their own unsuppressed data.
- 85
- Antibiotic claims
- Claims for an antibiotic.
- Emergency Medicine
- Prescriber type
- As CMS classifies this prescriber. Credentials: MD.
A blank is not a zero. CMS withholds a value between 1 and 10, and withholds the next lowest alongside it so the first cannot be worked out by subtraction — so a withheld figure is not even evidence that the number was small. Rows for ten or fewer claims are removed from the file altogether, which is why the parts of a total can be withheld while the total is published.
