    Key Findings

    NORTHERN COUNTIES HEALTH CARE, INC. is a Federally Qualified Health Center enumerated NPI on 2007-03-23 (~19 years ago) and, in the available files, operates as an effectively single‑payer Medicaid provider: Total Medicaid revenue is $4.4M and there is no Medicare billing on file. This tenure and taxonomy align with a long-standing community health center model focused on Medicaid populations in Hardwick, VT.

    Revenue is extremely concentrated in a single encounter code: the top three Medicaid codes account for 99.8% of the provider's Medicaid revenue, led by T1015 at $4.3M (97.4% of Medicaid revenue). G0467 contributes $99.5K (2.2%) and 90471 contributes $7K (0.2%), indicating nearly all Medicaid dollars flow through a small set of encounter/bundle codes.

    The code mix and dollar concentration point to an FQHC per‑encounter, all‑inclusive payment model as the primary business line: T1015 is the dominant line item (clinic visit/encounter, all‑inclusive) and G0467 (FQHC visit for established patients) is the secondary driver. Ancillary services such as immunizations (90471 and vaccine codes) and phlebotomy (36415) appear frequently in claim counts but represent a very small share of Medicaid revenue, consistent with visit‑based bundled reimbursement.

    Competitive standing for T1015 is solid but not top of market: T1015 ranks #17 of 70 providers in‑state at the 77th percentile, described in the data as "typical, unremarkable volume for this code," which indicates above‑median utilization within Vermont but not market dominance. G0467 ranks #9 of 49 (83th percentile) and 90471 ranks #14 of 88 (85th percentile), so the provider shows relatively stronger standing for the specific FQHC visit code and for vaccine administration frequency even though those codes contribute far less revenue than T1015.

    There is a notable discordance between claim volume and Medicaid revenue for standard office E/M codes: 99214 and 99213 show very high claim counts (11.3K and 9.6K claims, respectively) but are reported with $0 avg paid/claim and $0 revenue in the Medicaid file. This pattern suggests those E/M services may be documented at the claim level while reimbursement is captured through bundled encounter payments like T1015 or through other payment arrangements not reflected as separate Medicaid line‑item revenue in this dataset.

    Clinical breadth is visible but low‑revenue: the record shows routine primary care support services such as vaccines (90688, 90656, 90686, 91320), point‑of‑care and pandemic testing codes (87428, 87880), basic lab draws (36415), and drug/toxicology screening (80305), but together these codes account for a de minimis share of Medicaid dollars (individual revenues range from $528 down to $33). Many of these codes rank modestly to low statewide (for example 80305 ranks #27 of 29, 7th percentile; G2025 telehealth ranks #23 of 26, 12th percentile), indicating operational variety without meaningful separate Medicaid revenue streams.

    Telehealth and rural clinic distant‑site payments are present but immaterial to revenue: G2025 appears with 27 claims and $216 revenue (0.0% of Medicaid revenue) and ranks #23 of 26 (12th percentile), so remote‑site telehealth reimbursement does not currently contribute meaningfully to the provider's Medicaid financial profile. Overall, the dataset describes a classic FQHC that captures most Medicaid reimbursement through bundled, per‑encounter payments rather than a diverse set of high‑revenue fee‑for‑service lines.
