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

Why is the Medicaid comparison limited to Kentucky 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. Kentucky (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

ARTIS TRUETT is a long-tenured Dermatology Physician based in OWENSBORO, KY with an NPI enumerated 2006-08-20 (~20 years ago). Lifetime Medicare revenue on file totals $1.1M, and there is no Medicaid billing on file, indicating the provider’s Medicaid exposure is effectively zero in these records.

Revenue is concentrated in a small set of services: the precomputed top 3 Medicare codes account for 45.1% of this provider’s Medicare revenue. Those top three codes are 77280 ($190.1K; 17.9% of total Medicare revenue), 17311 ($178.9K; 16.9% of total Medicare revenue), and 99213 ($109.4K; 10.3% of total Medicare revenue), showing reliance on a few high-value or high-volume procedures.

The CPT mix points to a surgical dermatology practice with substantial Mohs and reconstructive activity plus significant pathology throughput. High-revenue Mohs codes such as 17311 ($178.9K), 17312 ($68.9K), and 17313 ($52.9K) combined with pathology codes like 88305 ($71.4K) and intraoperative services 88332 (336 claims, $13.8K) suggest in-procedure specimen processing and reconstructions (e.g., 14040 $50.9K, 14041 $36.7K) are central to operations.

Competitive standing varies by code: 77280 ranks #101 of 3348 nationally (97th percentile; notably above typical national volume), indicating unusually high use of radiation simulation relative to peers. By contrast, 17311 ranks #564 of 2969 (81th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume), while 99213 ranks #1036 of 457151 (100th percentile; extreme outlier, far above typical national volume), marking the provider as a major national outlier for office E/M volume but a more typical Mohs-volume participant.

Several specific code-level volume signals reinforce a high procedural throughput profile. The practice reports 1.9K claims for 99213 (1.9K claims, $58 avg paid/claim) and 990 claims for 77280 (990 claims, $192 avg paid/claim), plus 1.6K claims for 88305 (1.6K claims, $46 avg paid/claim), demonstrating both large clinic visit volume and substantial surgical/pathology case flow.

Payer mix is effectively single-payer Medicare: $1.1M of Medicare revenue versus no Medicaid billing on file. This concentration implies commercial/Medicaid coverage gaps in the available data and could matter for network negotiations, access to non-Medicare populations, and revenue diversification planning.

Operationally, the presence of both radiation-simulation codes (77280 $190.1K; 77290 $20.2K) alongside Mohs and reconstruction codes is atypical for a Dermatology Physician taxonomy and suggests either integrated services or billing for radiation-planning activities alongside dermatologic surgery. The listing of 77401 (670 claims, $19.4K) noted as deleted effective Jan. 1, 2026 also flags a historical billing component that will not contribute going forward.

From a risk and market-position perspective, the combination of extreme outlier E/M volume (99213) and notably above-typical radiation simulation volume (77280) positions the provider as a high-throughput, procedure-oriented Medicare supplier in national comparisons. Analysts should view this profile as an established, Medicare-focused surgical dermatology practice with concentrated revenue drivers rather than a broadly diversified payer mix.
