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.

1,351
Claims
Prescriptions and refills billed to Part D, as CMS counts them.
$1,480,977
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.
322
Beneficiaries
People with at least one prescription from this provider.
874
Brand-name claims
Of the claims above, those for a brand-name drug.
Withheld
Generic claims
Of the claims above, those for a generic. 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.
0
Opioid claims
CMS puts this provider's opioid prescribing rate at 0% of their claims. That is their figure, computed from their own unsuppressed data.
57
Antibiotic claims
Claims for an antibiotic.
Pulmonary Disease
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.
