What this provider does (Medicare)
Based on Medicare fee-for-service claims, 2024; not all care is captured.

Typical Medicare-allowed amounts for these services range $75–$164 (2024). The Medicare-allowed amount is what Medicare recognizes for a service under fee-for-service — a reference figure for 2024, 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 · 16 distinct drugs on file.
| Drug | Part D claims (2024) |
|---|---|
| Vancomycin Hcl | 33 |
| Azithromycin | 32 |
| Cefadroxil | 31 |
| Amoxicillin | 30 |
| Ceftriaxone Sodiumbrand: Ceftriaxone | 29 |
| Levofloxacin | 22 |

| Ethambutol Hcl | 18 |
| 0.9 % Sodium Chloridebrand: Sodium Chloride | 17 |
| Fosfomycin Tromethamine | 17 |
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.
