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 Armed Forces Europe for Medicaid) — rank 1 means the highest claims volume for that code.

Why is the Medicaid comparison limited to Armed Forces Europe 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. Armed Forces Europe (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 provider’s Medicare footprint is small in absolute terms: total Medicare revenue is $19.4K and there is no Medicaid billing on file, so the practice is effectively single-payer Medicare in scope rather than a mixed Medicaid/Medicare operation. The absence of any Medicaid claims means Medicaid network impact and state-level utilization patterns are not observable for this NPI.

The top revenue-driving services are tightly clustered in inpatient evaluation-and-management and advance care planning: 99497 (advance care planning), 99232 (subsequent hospital inpatient/observation care), and 99223 (initial hospital inpatient/observation care) together account for 69.8% of Medicare revenue, indicating a concentrated service-line focused on hospital-based visits and time-intensive planning conversations. This mix suggests the provider operates in settings where inpatient rounds and face-to-face advance care planning are routine components of their workflow.

Examining the top three codes individually shows moderate claim volume and varied paid amounts: 99497 had 78 claims at $67 avg paid/claim generating $5.2K (27.1% of Medicare revenue), 99232 had 70 claims at $70 avg paid/claim generating $4.9K (25.4%), and 99223 had 23 claims at $145 avg paid/claim generating $3.3K (17.3%). The higher average payment on 99223 is consistent with initial inpatient encounters that require more time or higher medical decision making, while 99497’s role in advance care planning contributes a meaningful single-code revenue share.

Competitive standing by code is modest and generally within typical ranges rather than outlier activity: 99497 ranks #8391 of 27157 providers nationally (69th percentile; described as typical, unremarkable volume for this code), 99232 ranks #97403 of 177383 (45th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume), and 99223 ranks #97462 of 139583 (29th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume). These percentiles indicate the provider is not a dominant national player for these codes but participates at a conventional level for a clinician with a hospital-focused practice.

Secondary inpatient codes reinforce the hospital-based E/M focus and a spread of visit complexity: 99233 contributed $2.4K (12.2% of Medicare revenue) across 22 claims at $107 avg paid/claim and ranks in the 11th percentile (noted as typical, unremarkable volume), while 99231 contributed $2K (10.2%) across 48 claims at $41 avg paid/claim and ranks in the 61th percentile (typical, unremarkable volume). The presence of both initial (99223, 99222) and subsequent (99232, 99233, 99231) inpatient codes shows the provider bills across different levels of inpatient complexity rather than a single visit type.

The provider’s billing scale and concentration make their financial and utilization impact narrow: with $19.4K total Medicare revenue and the top three codes representing 69.8% of that revenue, payers can reasonably model this NPI as a small, specialized inpatient-focused contributor to utilization rather than a high-volume ambulatory or multi-payer practice. Because there is no Medicaid activity on file, inclusion or exclusion from Medicaid networks will not materially affect state-level volumes tied to this NPI.

NPI tenure is established but not long-standing: the NPI was enumerated on 2018-07-20 (~8 years ago), providing several years of Medicare billing history to assess patterns. This tenure is sufficient to observe a stable pattern dominated by inpatient E/M and advance care planning codes rather than transient or newly emergent billing behavior.
