CMS’s file covers 2019–2025. It holds no payments to Brooke Houshiar in 2019–2022.

Recipient type

Covered Recipient Non-Physician Practitioner

How CMS classifies the recipient of these payments.

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.

153

Claims

Prescriptions and refills billed to Part D, as CMS counts them.

$7,649

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.

71

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.

135

Generic claims

Of the claims above, those for a generic.

not reported

Opioid claims

Claims for an opioid. CMS published no figure for this provider, and there is no suppression marker on this measure — so this is an absent figure rather than a withheld one, and it is not a zero.

15

Antibiotic claims

Claims for an antibiotic.

Nurse Practitioner

Prescriber type

As CMS classifies this prescriber. Credentials: DNP, FNP-C.

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.
