Medicare Part D only. These counts cover prescriptions paid through Medicare Part D in 2024 — they do notinclude 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.
Transparency — industry payments
Based on CMS Open Payments, 2024; not all care is captured.
$134 across 2 records (Open Payments 2024)
Open Payments discloses payments and transfers of value (meals, travel, consulting, research, royalties) from drug and device makers to providers.
