    Key Findings

    Medicaid dominates this provider’s payer mix: reported lifetime Medicaid revenue is $4M versus total Medicare revenue of $1.5M, indicating that the practice’s scale is primarily Medicaid-driven rather than Medicare-driven. The NPI was enumerated 2015-01-21 (~11 years ago), so this footprint has been established for roughly a decade.

    Revenue concentration is high on a few services for both payers: the top three Medicare codes account for 56.7% of Medicare revenue and the top three Medicaid codes account for 57.2% of Medicaid revenue. At the code level, P9603 alone supplies $454.1K (33.9% of Medicare revenue) on Medicare while 87798 supplies $1.3M (35.3% of Medicaid revenue), showing heavy reliance on a single dominant service in each payer stream.

    The code mix points to a laboratory operation built around mobile/specimen collection and high-volume molecular infectious disease testing: P9603 (travel allowance for home-bound/SNF specimen collection) is the single largest Medicare line and U0004/U0005 and multiple multiplex respiratory codes appear prominently across both payers. This suggests field collection (home or nursing facility draws) plus high-throughput molecular testing capacity as core service lines rather than solely in-office phlebotomy.

    Routine clinical testing volumes are also substantial on Medicare, with traditional panels and analytes showing very high national placement: 80053 $60.1K (rank #286 of 26416, 99th percentile), 85025 $42.6K (rank #314 of 32833, 99th percentile), and 80061 $35.5K (rank #312 of 21671, 99th percentile). These listings indicate the lab performs large volumes of common chemistry and hematology panels in addition to its molecular and collection business.

    On Medicare this provider is a recognizable national participant for specific services but not a dominant national lab overall: P9603 ranks #31 of 267 nationally (89th percentile; characterized as typical), U0004 ranks #28 of 259 (90th percentile; typical), and G0471 ranks #36 of 117 (70th percentile; typical). In plain terms, the provider reports elevated but described-as-typical volumes for its highest Medicare lines rather than outlier activity.

    Within Alabama Medicaid competitive standing is meaningful for molecular and specialized testing but not uniformly leading: 87798 is $1.3M and ranks #16 of 57 in-state (73rd percentile; typical), U0004 is $415.4K and ranks #7 of 15 (57th percentile; typical), and G0481 (definitive drug testing) is $194.5K and ranks #5 of 18 (76th percentile; typical). These placements indicate the lab is an active in-state player for infectious-agent and drug confirmation testing but not necessarily the statewide market leader across all services.

    Drug-testing and toxicology work is a clear service line focus in Medicaid receipts and is present in Medicare as well: Medicaid G0481 $194.5K (5.4% of Medicaid revenue), G0483 $113.7K (3.1%), G0482 $72.8K (2.0%), and G0480 $52.1K (1.4%) together show multi-tier definitive testing volume, while Medicare records G0481 at $24.3K (1.8% of Medicare revenue). This pattern supports an operational capability in GC/MS- and LC/MS-type confirmatory testing in addition to immunoassay screening.

    Concentration and cross-payer dependence on infectious-agent molecular testing and specimen-collection services create business risk if demand or reimbursement for those lines shifts: U0004 appears as a top code on both payers (Medicare $223.6K, 16.7% of Medicare revenue; Medicaid $415.4K, 11.4% of Medicaid revenue), and the provider’s top-three-code concentration (56.7% Medicare, 57.2% Medicaid) highlights how changes to a small set of services could materially affect total revenue.
