    Key Findings

    This provider has no Medicare billing on file and reports $19.2M in lifetime Medicaid revenue, making its public payer footprint effectively single-payer (Medicaid) in scope. The absence of Medicare activity suggests analyses of payer mix, financial risk, and network leverage should focus on Medicaid performance rather than cross‑payer comparisons.

    Revenue is highly concentrated in a small number of high-value Medicaid codes: the precomputed top three Medicaid codes account for 65.0% of this provider's total Medicaid revenue. In particular, J0791 alone represents 36.0% of Medicaid revenue ($6M, 1K claims, $5822 avg paid/claim), followed by G0463 at 21.9% ($3.6M, 98.3K claims) and 99284 at 7.0% ($1.2M, 17.4K claims); this concentration implies that changes in coverage, utilization, or pricing for these specific services would materially affect overall revenue.

    The code mix indicates a tertiary acute‑care hospital with substantial outpatient and emergency services: G0463 (hospital outpatient clinic visits) is a major revenue driver with 98.3K claims and $3.6M in revenue, and emergency department E/M codes 99284, 99283, and 99282 together reflect very large ED volume (17.4K, 24.5K, and 12.9K claims respectively). High claim counts for lab and imaging panels (e.g., 85025 66.7K claims, 80048 50.6K claims) further support that the organization operates extensive inpatient/outpatient labs and diagnostics alongside ED and clinic operations.

    The provider appears to deliver specialty infusion and high‑cost drug services within its Medicaid population: J0791 (crizanlizumab) is a dominant revenue driver ($6M) and 96365 (initial IV infusion) ranks #1 in‑state with 3.8K claims and $122.6K revenue, indicating a programmatic capacity for infusion therapies and expensive biologic administration. That combination of a single, high-cost drug accounting for 36.0% of Medicaid revenue and elevated infusion procedure volumes suggests a strategic or clinical emphasis on specialty therapeutics.

    Several codes show the provider as a statewide volume leader or extreme outlier in specific procedural or diagnostic services: 93005 (ECG recording) ranks #1 of 100 providers in‑state and is labeled an "extreme outlier, far above typical state volume" (15.3K claims, $199.3K revenue), while 96365 and 80306 also rank #1 in‑state and are described as extreme outliers. These rank/percentile signals indicate the provider operates as a central hub for certain technical services and high-frequency testing within Alabama's Medicaid network.

    Other high-volume laboratory and diagnostic codes reinforce a centralized clinical lab and imaging footprint: 85025 (CBC) and 80048 (BMP) have 66.7K and 50.6K claims respectively and each contributes multiple percentage points to revenue (85025: $533.7K, 3.2%; 80048: $505.7K, 3.0%), with percentile ranks at or near the 99th percentile in‑state. The combination of massive claim counts for basic chemistries and blood tests supports a referral role for routine and pre‑procedure testing tied to inpatient, outpatient, and ED throughput.

    Competitive standing is mixed by service line: for the high-cost drug J0791 the provider is the only in‑state reporter (rank #1 of 1) making formal peer benchmarking infeasible, while for outpatient clinic visits G0463 it is a top regional operator (rank #3 of 43, 95th percentile) indicating strong but not exclusive statewide presence. For several ancillary services (e.g., A9502, 80306, 96365) the provider ranks #1 in‑state and is described as notably or extremely above typical volumes, signaling dominance in those technical areas even if overall Medicaid revenue is concentrated in a few items.

    The NPI tenure is long-standing: the provider was enumerated on 2006-08-18 (~20 years ago), indicating persistent presence in the market. Given the long enrollment and the current Medicaid revenue concentration patterns, analysts should prioritize monitoring of specialty infusion access, ED throughput trends, and large‑volume lab/imaging services when assessing operational capacity and contract negotiations with Medicaid plans.
