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 Nebraska for Medicaid) — rank 1 means the highest claims volume for that code.

Why is the Medicaid comparison limited to Nebraska 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. Nebraska (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.

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

Key Findings

BRANDON BAARTMAN is an ophthalmology physician in Omaha, NE with an NPI enumerated on 2013-05-10 (~13 years ago). His lifetime Medicare revenue is $619K and there is no Medicaid billing on file, indicating Medicare is effectively his sole public-payer source in the available data.

Revenue is highly concentrated: the platform precomputed that the top 3 Medicare codes by revenue account for 80.9% of this provider’s total Medicare revenue. The single largest code is 66984, which alone represents $397.7K (64.1% of Medicare revenue), followed by 65756 at $54.6K (8.8%) and 66821 at $49K (7.9%).

The code mix and volumes point to a procedure-centric cataract and anterior segment practice. High-volume cataract extraction and IOL implantation activity is evident from 66984 (1.2K claims, $330 avg paid/claim, $397.7K revenue) and related codes 66991 and 66982, while 92136 (1.4K claims, $28 avg paid/claim, $38.6K revenue) shows very large biometry volumes consistent with routine pre- or intra-operative IOL power calculations.

Competitive standing varies by service line: 92136 is labeled an "extreme outlier, far above typical national volume" and ranks #33 of 8731 providers, indicating exceptionally high national volume for biometry. Corneal transplant code 65756 ranks #20 of 567 (96th percentile; notably above typical national volume), suggesting above-typical corneal surgery activity, while 66984 ranks #1769 of 15965 (89th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume) — high but within expected ranges for cataract surgeons.

Presence of specialized anterior-segment procedures beyond routine cataract care is notable: 65756 (complete corneal transplant) has 63 claims and $54.6K revenue and ranks high nationally, implying this provider offers corneal surgery services in addition to cataract operations. By contrast, glaucoma-related endoscopic cyclophotocoagulation with lens insertion (66988) appears low-volume (18 claims, $7.4K, rank #96 of 115, 11th percentile), indicating limited activity in that specific glaucoma procedure.

Non-procedural evaluation-and-management revenue is minimal: 99204 accounts for 18 claims and $2.2K (0.4% of Medicare revenue) and ranks #168319 of 227068 (23rd percentile). This pattern—high procedural revenue combined with low E/M billing—is consistent with a surgery-focused practice that bills primarily for procedural services rather than extended office visits.

Payer-mix risk should be noted: with $619K in Medicare revenue and no Medicaid billing on file, the provider is effectively single-payer reliant on Medicare for public-payor volume. That concentration increases sensitivity to Medicare reimbursement policies and coverage changes compared with peers who have mixed public-payer exposure.

Although total Medicare revenue of $619K is modest in absolute terms compared with large regional surgical groups, procedural volumes for key codes are substantial (e.g., 1.2K claims for 66984 and 1.4K claims for 92136), indicating a practice that drives throughput-focused surgical care. The profile therefore combines modest overall Medicare revenue with specialty concentration in high-volume cataract/IOL workflows and selected corneal surgery.
