    Key Findings

    This provider is a retina-focused ophthalmologist: the top CPT/HCPCS codes are dominated by intravitreal drug injections and retina imaging/diagnostic services, led by J0178 (aflibercept), J2777 (faricimab-svoa), J3490 (unclassified drugs) and retina procedure codes like 67028 and 92134. The mix — high-volume injectable drug codes plus retinal imaging and intravitreal injection procedure codes — is consistent with a practice largely delivering medical retina care (wet AMD/diabetic retinal disease) rather than primary eye care or surgical retina alone.

    Revenue concentration is high: the precomputed top three Medicare codes by revenue account for 79.9% of this provider’s total Medicare revenue, with a single code J0178 alone representing $355.7K (52.8% of Medicare revenue). This indicates most Medicare dollars flow from a small set of anti‑VEGF/retina drug administrations rather than a broad range of E/M or surgical services.

    Medicare is effectively the sole public payer exposure: lifetime Medicare revenue is $673.5K while there is no Medicaid billing on file. The provider therefore presents as a single‑payer (Medicare) billing profile for public programs, which is important for analysts modeling payer mix or population access.

    National competitive standing on the top drug code is modest: the provider ranks #1903 of 3204 for J0178, placing them around the 41st percentile nationally, which the source labels as typical and unremarkable volume for that code. For other significant drug codes, ranking information also places the provider in routine percentiles (for example J3490 at the 48th percentile), indicating they are not a dominant national provider of these injectables but a steady, moderate-volume user.

    There are pockets of relatively higher concentration on some retina diagnostics: 92134 (OCT imaging) shows 581 claims and ranks in the 88th percentile nationally, which the data labels as typical but at higher-than-average volume compared with peers. This suggests a diagnostic throughput that is above many peers even while therapeutic injection volumes remain more middle-of-market.

    The provider’s utilization of several newer or specialty intravitreal agents is notable: besides aflibercept (J0178), claims include J2777 (faricimab-svoa) with $99.2K revenue and J2781 (pegcetacoplan) with $45K revenue, indicating treatment of a range of retina indications and adoption of newer drug options. Those codes collectively contribute materially to the practice’s Medicare revenue mix.

    Office E/M and comprehensive exam coding is a relatively small share of revenue: 92014 and 92004 together account for a minor portion of Medicare revenue (92014 at $25.7K and 92004 at $4.7K), consistent with a procedure- and drug‑driven revenue model rather than an E/M-dominated general ophthalmology practice.

    Tenure is long-standing: the NPI was enumerated on 2005-12-15 (approximately 21 years ago), indicating an established provider with a long history in the Medicare program; this tenure supports the interpretation of a mature retina specialty practice rather than a recent entrant.

    Low engagement with Medicaid limits visibility into state-level safety-net activity: the absence of Medicaid billing on file means this provider does not meaningfully participate in that payer’s programs (or at least has no recorded Medicaid activity), which constrains comparisons to in‑state peers and suggests a Medicare-focused referral/patient mix.
