What this provider does (Medicare)
Based on Medicare fee-for-service claims, 2024; not all care is captured.
| Service (HCPCS) | Medicare services | Typical Medicare-allowed (2024) |
|---|---|---|
| Established Patient Office Or Other Outpatient Visit With Moderate Level of Decision Making, If Using Time, 30 Minutes Or More99214 | 19 | $139 |
Typical Medicare-allowed amounts for these services range $139–$139 (2024). The Medicare-allowed amount is what Medicare recognizes for a service under fee-for-service — a reference figure for 2024, not a price quote and not what you would be billed. Medicare Part B covers roughly an eighth of all NPIs (65+ skew); services with fewer than 11 beneficiaries are suppressed by CMS.

What this provider prescribes (Medicare Part D)
Top drugs by Medicare Part D claim volume, 2024 · 8 distinct drugs on file.
| Drug | Part D claims (2024) |
|---|---|
| Rimegepant Sulfatebrand: Nurtec Odt | 44 |
| Morphine Sulfatebrand: Morphine Sulfate Er | 26 |
| Butalb/Acetaminophen/Caffeinebrand: Butalbital-Acetaminophen-Caffe | 21 |
| Erenumab-Aooebrand: Aimovig Autoinjector | 19 |
| Celecoxib | 14 |
| Gabapentin | 13 |
| Ubrogepantbrand: Ubrelvy | 13 |
| Atogepantbrand: Qulipta | 12 |
These counts cover prescriptions paid through Medicare Part D in 2024 — they include cash-pay, commercial-insurance, Medicaid, or Part B–administered drugs, and badly undercount high cash-pay categories (e.g. GLP-1 weight-loss, testosterone, and ED medications). Any drug with 10 or fewer claims is omitted by CMS, and beneficiary counts under 11 are suppressed — so a missing drug means , never zero. This is a factual claims summary, not an endorsement, not medical advice, and not a consumer report. Source: CMS Medicare Part D Prescribers — by Provider and Drug.
