    Key Findings

    CHERYL LEE is an Ophthalmology Physician based in RICHLAND, WA with an NPI enumerated on 2010-11-01 (~16 years ago). Lifetime billing shows Total Medicare revenue: $1.5M and no Medicaid billing on file, indicating the provider operates effectively as a Medicare-focused practice rather than a dual-payer operation. The longevity of enrollment suggests an established outpatient practice footprint in the market.

    Revenue is highly concentrated: the precomputed top 3 Medicare codes (J0178, 67028, 92134) account for 88.2% of this provider's total Medicare revenue, with J0178 alone representing 75.9% of Medicare dollars. This concentration indicates that a very small set of services drives nearly all billed Medicare revenue, which amplifies the business impact of reimbursement or utilization changes for those codes.

    The code mix points to a retina-centered, procedure-heavy practice model: J0178 (aflibercept injection) has 1.7K claims and dominates revenue, supported by high volumes of intravitreal procedures (67028, 1.6K claims) and retinal imaging (92134, 1.5K claims). Office-based evaluation and management (92014, 436 claims; 99214 and 99213 combined) and surgical cataract work (66984: 80 claims) compose only a minority of revenue, implying the practice focuses on recurring injection visits and diagnostic imaging rather than primary care ophthalmology or high-volume cataract surgery.

    Competitive standing is mixed across top codes: J0178 ranks #726 of 3204 providers nationally (77th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume), meaning the provider posts solid but not exceptional national volume for aflibercept injections. 67028 ranks #684 of 4255 (84th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume), which places intravitreal injection procedural volume above average but still characterized by the source data as within a typical range nationally.

    Statistical outliers and relative strengths are evident in imaging and alternative drug use: 92134 ranks #1490 of 26868 providers (94th percentile; notably above typical national volume), signaling unusually high OCT imaging activity relative to peers and reinforcing a retina-focused workload. By contrast, J9035 (bevacizumab) shows 786 claims and ranks #123 of 1852 providers (93th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume) and is labeled in the source as typical despite its high percentile rank, indicating sizable but not atypical use of off-label bevacizumab in this provider's mix.

    Clinical revenue mix suggests operational implications: recurring, high-frequency injection appointments (many small, procedure-focused encounters) likely dominate scheduling, staffing, and supply workflows given 1.7K J0178 claims and 1.6K 67028 claims. The lower contribution from E/M codes (92014, 99214, 99213) suggests fewer long, complex office-based evaluation visits relative to procedure throughput, which may shape staffing and facility needs toward procedure suites and imaging capacity.

    Concentration risk and opportunity are both present: dependence on J0178 for 75.9% of Medicare revenue makes the practice sensitive to changes in aflibercept utilization, reimbursement, or clinical guidelines, while the notably high 92134 imaging volume (94th percentile) and established injection throughput present opportunities to expand retina-care pathways or ancillary services tied to retinal disease management. Given Total Medicare revenue: $1.5M and no Medicaid billing on file, payer diversification is limited and any strategic or reimbursement shifts in Medicare-covered retinal therapies would have outsized financial impact.
