Why are Medicare and Medicaid shown separately instead of combined?

They come from two different CMS data sources with no shared claim identifier, so they can't be reconciled into one number without double-counting or guessing. Every table and chart on this page keeps them fully separate.

Why is there no private/commercial revenue figure?

Private and commercial payer data comes from Transparency in Coverage files, which only publish negotiated rates — not claims or utilization volume. Without a volume figure, no revenue number can be computed for any provider from that data.

What does "Rank" mean in the Competitive Analysis & Benchmarks tables?

For a given CPT/HCPCS code, it's this provider's position by claims volume among all providers billing that same code at that geography level (State, National, or Washington for Medicaid) — rank 1 means the highest claims volume for that code.

Why is the Medicaid comparison limited to Washington only?

Medicaid is administered per-state with no single national fee schedule, so a state or national comparison the way Medicare has one isn't available. Washington (this provider's own state) is the only grouping that's conceptually meaningful.

Why are the numbers rounded to the nearest 10?

To avoid implying more precision than the underlying data supports at a single-provider level. Ratios are kept precise since they're a relative comparison, not a volume or dollar figure.

How current is this data?

The Medicare and Medicaid tables are both single current snapshots, not refreshed on a recurring schedule yet.

Key Findings

This provider’s commercial presence is effectively single‑payer: Total Medicare revenue is $1.7M and there is no Medicaid billing on file, so Medicare accounts for the entirety of recorded public‑payer revenue for this NPI. Analysts should treat comparisons and trend work as Medicare‑centric for this clinician because there is no in‑state Medicaid activity to benchmark against.

Revenue is highly concentrated in a small set of imaging and treatment codes: the precomputed top three Medicare codes account for 58.3% of the provider’s total Medicare revenue. Those top three are 78815 ($379K, 22.4%), A9596 ($355.2K, 21.0%), and G6015 ($253.5K, 15.0%), which together drive the majority of billed revenue.

The code mix indicates an integrated radiation‑oncology operation that combines advanced diagnostic nuclear medicine with high‑complexity radiation delivery. High‑revenue imaging codes (78815, 78816, A9596, A9552) alongside treatment delivery and planning codes (G6015, 77301, 77373, 77338) imply the practice both performs PET/CT diagnostics and provides IMRT and stereotactic treatment services.

A9596 (Gallium ga‑68 gozetotide) stands out on national rank: it ranks #15 of 168 providers nationally (92th percentile) and is described in the file as typical, unremarkable volume. Given its large dollar contribution ($355.2K, 21.0% of Medicare revenue), this facility is a significant national user of that tracer by rank even though the supplied label calls the observed volume typical.

78815 (PET/CT) also contributes materially to revenue ($379K, 22.4% of Medicare revenue) and ranks #526 of 6566 providers nationally (92th percentile) with the file label of typical, unremarkable volume. Combined with the G6015 footprint (868 claims, $253.5K, 15.0% of revenue; ranks #435 of 1429, 69th percentile), the provider appears to be a steady, mid‑to‑upper‑tier national participant rather than a dominant outlier across its principal imaging and delivery codes.

Some codes show above‑typical activity for complex office evaluations: 99205 is reported as notably above typical national volume and ranks #3702 of 66257 providers (94th percentile), generating $15.5K from 94 claims. This suggests the provider receives a meaningful number of high‑complexity new patient consults in addition to procedure‑driven throughput.

Claim volumes confirm steady procedural throughput across both imaging and treatment sessions: for example, G6015 (868 claims), 77014 (1K claims, $97.4K), and 77336 (360 claims, $25.2K) demonstrate frequent day‑to‑day use of both imaging logistics and ongoing radiation‑therapy delivery. These volumes support a practice model that is operationally oriented toward repeated imaging and multi‑session radiation treatments.

The provider has an established tenure on file (NPI enumerated 2006-05-25, ~20 years ago), which supports interpretation of these patterns as sustained rather than ephemeral. Long enumeration combined with concentrated Medicare revenue in advanced imaging and radiation delivery suggests an enduring, specialized radiation oncology practice focused on PET diagnostics and IMRT/SBRT therapies.
