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 entity has no Medicare billing on file and reports $103.7M in lifetime Medicaid revenue, making its publicly observed payment footprint effectively single-payer (Medicaid) at scale. Analysts should treat Medicaid as the primary and dominant payer when profiling this provider.

Revenue is extremely concentrated in a single service: the top three Medicaid CPT/HCPCS codes account for 100.0% of reported Medicaid revenue, with T1013 alone representing $103.4M (99.7% of the provider's total Medicaid revenue). This concentration indicates that virtually all Medicaid receipts derive from one service line.

The dominant code, T1013 (Sign language or oral interpretive services, per 15 minutes), implies the provider operates primarily as a language/interpretation contractor focused on sign language and oral interpretation, billing on a time-based unit model. The code mix suggests core operations are centered on interpretation services rather than broad clinical care or high-volume medical procedures.

Smaller ancillary codes include A0170 (parking fees, tolls, other) at $233.1K (0.2% of Medicaid revenue) and S0215 (non-emergency transportation; mileage, per mile) at $31K (0.0% of Medicaid revenue), indicating the organization also bills modest transportation-related expenses, likely to support interpreter travel or onsite services. These ancillary revenues are negligible relative to T1013 but reflect operational support activities.

Competitive standing for T1013 is dominant in-state: the provider ranks #1 of 20 for T1013, at the 100th percentile, and is described as an extreme outlier, far above typical state volume for this code. This rank and descriptor indicate the organization is a major statewide provider for sign language/oral interpretive services rather than a modest participant.

By contrast, although the provider also ranks #1 of 3 for A0170 and #1 of 2 for S0215 (both at the 100th percentile), the data label these volumes as typical, unremarkable, and the absolute dollar amounts ($233.1K and $31K respectively) are small; these ranks do not imply significant revenue impact or diversified market power outside the core T1013 service.

The provider's NPI was enumerated on 2010-03-24 (~16 years ago), indicating a long tenure in the system. This duration supports the interpretation that its concentrated billing pattern is sustained rather than a short-term anomaly.

A practical implication for payers and analysts is elevated business and reimbursement concentration risk: with $103.7M in Medicaid revenue and 99.7% of that tied to T1013, changes to coverage policy, rate-setting, or utilization management for interpretation services would disproportionately affect this provider's revenue. Monitoring policy and utilization trends for T1013 should be a priority when assessing financial or contracting exposure.
