    Key Findings

    Practice is effectively a Medicare-focused oncology infusion practice: total Medicare revenue is $1M while Medicaid billing is none, and the top revenue-driving codes are high-cost biologic and infusion agents such as J9271 ($335.4K, 33.0%), J0897 ($156.6K, 15.4%) and J1576 ($123.2K, 12.1%), which together account for 60.6% of Medicare revenue. The code mix (pembrolizumab, denosumab, IV immune globulin and multiple chemotherapy administration CPTs like 96413 and G0498) indicates a service line centered on outpatient oncology/infusion treatments rather than primary care or inpatient procedures.

    Revenue is highly concentrated in a few drugs: the precomputed top-3 share is 60.6%, with J9271 alone responsible for $335.4K (33.0%) of Medicare revenue. This concentration means the practice’s financial performance is sensitive to usage and reimbursement of a small set of high-cost injectables rather than broad E/M volume.

    Payer mix is effectively single-payer Medicare: the profile shows $1M in lifetime Medicare revenue and none for Medicaid, signaling the provider operates without measurable Medicaid participation on file. That asymmetry suggests contracting, referral patterns, or patient mix that favors Medicare beneficiaries and oncology care billed to Medicare.

    Competitive standing by code is mixed and generally within typical peer ranges: J0897 ranks #1401 of 10057 providers nationally (86th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume), indicating relatively higher-than-average national activity for denosumab, while J9271 ranks #1430 of 1841 (21th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume) showing modest national volume for pembrolizumab. Other services such as office E/M care (99214 ranks #47085 of 479517, 90th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume) and lab testing (85025 ranks #1112 of 32833, 97th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume) show the practice performs strongly on routine visit and on-site lab volumes compared with peers.

    Several procedural codes point to an on-site infusion and phlebotomy workflow: 36415 (venipuncture) has 1.4K claims with $10.8K revenue and ranks #1789 of 86467 (98th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume), and 85025 (CBC) has 1.8K claims with $14.7K revenue and ranks #1112 of 32833 (97th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume). High percentile placement on these lab and specimen codes supports a steady throughput of infusion patients requiring blood monitoring and same-site specimen collection.

    There are high-count, low-unit-payment items in the mix that contribute measurable revenue through volume: J1439 shows 19.5K claims at $1 avg paid/claim for $19.5K revenue (1.9% of Medicare revenue) and ranks #852 of 1209 (28th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume). This pattern is consistent with frequent use of low-dollar injectable items alongside fewer, high-dollar biologic infusions.

    Chemo administration and add-on infusion codes show routine chemotherapy activity but not dominant national share: 96413 appears with 369 claims, $35.1K revenue and ranks #1316 of 7514 (82th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume), while add-on codes like 96417 and 96415 appear at lower revenue and mid-to-lower percentiles. These entries support characterization of the practice as regularly delivering multi-drug infusion sessions rather than being a major national hub for chemotherapy administration.

    Provider tenure is long-standing: the NPI enumerated on 2006-11-03 (~20 years ago), indicating roughly two decades of billing history under this NPI and suggesting established referral relationships and operational experience in hematology/oncology care. This longevity combined with concentrated Medicare billing provides context for evaluating historical utilization trends and contracting leverage.
