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

Why is the Medicaid comparison limited to North Dakota 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. North Dakota (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 NPI is registered as a Diagnostic Radiology Physician and the Medicare code mix confirms a diagnostic imaging practice focused on breast imaging, cross-sectional CT, cardiac echo, and vascular ultrasound services. The three highest‑revenue CPTs are 77067 (screening mammography with CAD), 74177 (CT abdomen/pelvis with contrast), and 93306 (2D transthoracic echocardiography), which together drive the provider’s imaging business lines and referral profile.

Medicare is the exclusive payer on file: Total Medicare revenue is $530K and there is no Medicaid billing on file. This provider is effectively single‑payer (Medicare) in the available data, so any assessment of Medicaid exposure or in‑state competitive position cannot be made from these records.

Revenue concentration is notable: the precomputed top‑3 Medicare codes account for 43.7% of this provider’s total Medicare revenue. That degree of concentration indicates that a small set of diagnostic services—mammography, CT abdomen/pelvis, and transthoracic echo—are the primary revenue drivers for this practice.

Breast imaging is a clear strength versus national peers: 77067 shows 1.5K claims, $92.7K revenue and ranks #633 of 15198 providers nationally (96th percentile; notably above typical national volume for this code), while 77063 also posts 1.5K claims, $39.6K revenue and ranks #580 of 14277 providers nationally (96th percentile; notably above typical national volume). High claim counts and top‑percentile ranks on both screening mammography and tomosynthesis suggest this provider is a high‑volume mammography site compared with national radiology peers.

Cross‑sectional CT and vascular imaging volumes are also elevated: 74177 (451 claims, $51.4K, rank #801 of 23621, 97th percentile; notably above typical national volume) and 74176 (224 claims, $16.1K, rank #1378 of 22168, 94th percentile; notably above typical national volume) indicate above‑typical abdominal/pelvic CT throughput, while vascular duplex 93880 (327 claims, $23.5K, rank #630 of 21316, 97th percentile; notably above typical national volume) shows strong peripheral vascular service volume relative to peers.

Not all services are outliers — some high‑revenue codes sit at more typical national levels. For example, 93306 (453 claims, $43K) ranks #4450 of 24624 providers (82nd percentile; typical, unremarkable volume), and several ultrasound and CTA codes such as 71275 (rank #2496 of 19107, 87th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume) and 93975 (rank #186 of 3999, 95th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume) show a mix of routine national standing and specialty niches rather than uniform dominance across all modalities.

Claim counts reinforce a high‑throughput diagnostic profile: multiple CPTs have large claim volumes (77067: 1.5K claims; 77063: 1.5K claims; 71046: 1.3K claims; 73502: 401 claims), consistent with frequent, routine imaging work rather than low‑volume specialized procedures. This pattern aligns with a practice that appears to handle high volumes of screening and standard diagnostic imaging for a Medicare population.

The provider has long tenure in Medicare billing: NPI enumeration date is 2008-06-16 (~18 years ago). That extended presence, combined with the skew toward Medicare and sustained high claim counts on core imaging codes, suggests an established regional imaging practice with stable Medicare referral streams.
