    Key Findings

    FORREST COUNTY GENERAL HOSPITAL shows no Medicare billing on file and is effectively single‑payer within this dataset, reporting Total Medicaid revenue of $81.6M; analysts should treat Medicaid activity as the primary revenue stream for this provider. The NPI was enumerated 2006-08-14 (~20 years ago), indicating long-standing participation in public programs.

    Revenue is highly concentrated in a small set of emergency and observation codes: the precomputed top 3 Medicaid codes (99285, 99284, G0378) account for 48.0% of this provider's total Medicaid revenue. Individually those top codes are large contributors — 99285 $11.7M (19.2%), 99284 $8.9M (14.6%), and G0378 $8.6M (14.1%) — so shifts in emergency/observation utilization would materially affect overall Medicaid revenue.

    The code mix and dollar concentrations point to an emergency-department and short-stay observation operational model: 99285, 99284, and 99283 are among the highest-volume E/M ED codes and G0378 (hospital observation service, per hour) is a major revenue driver. Complementary high-volume supporting services such as oxygen therapy 94640 ($2M, ranks #1 of 137, 100th percentile, extreme outlier) and ECG 93005 (54.2K claims, $975.3K, ranks #2 of 113, 99th percentile, extreme outlier) reinforce high ED throughput and acute respiratory/cardiac evaluation capacity.

    FORREST COUNTY is a major in-state ED and observation provider by comparative ranking: 99285 ranks #4 of 175 providers in-state (98th percentile; extreme outlier), 99284 ranks #9 of 227 (96th percentile; notably above typical), and G0378 ranks #2 of 72 (99th percentile; notably above typical). Those rank/percentile positions indicate the hospital operates far above typical state volume for its leading acute-care codes and should be considered a dominant local ED/observation site.

    The provider maintains a substantive infusion and oncology footprint alongside its ED activity: 96374 ($3M, 5.0%) and 96365 ($1.9M, 3.1%) are extreme outliers in state volume, and chemotherapy and immunotherapy lines are present with 96413 $1.4M (2.3%), 77386 $1.6M (2.7%), J9271 $2.3M (3.7%), and J9299 $1.3M (2.1%). These codes and their ranks (for example, J9299 ranks #1 of 8 providers in-state, 100th percentile) signal on‑site infusion/oncology services that contribute meaningfully, though they do not dominate total Medicaid revenue.

    Advanced imaging and cardiovascular diagnostics appear as secondary service lines: 74177 CT abdomen/pelvis $1.5M (2.5%, ranks #6 of 112, 95th percentile), 70450 CT head $884K (1.5%, ranks #5 of 145, 97th percentile), 78452 cardiac SPECT $1.1M (1.8%, ranks #1 of 49, 100th percentile), and 93458 imaging for coronary angiography $768.7K (1.3%, ranks #3 of 26, 92nd percentile). These data indicate the hospital offers substantial imaging and cath/lab imaging capacity used alongside its ED and specialty services.

    Routine ED and supportive inpatient procedures are unusually high in volume relative to peers: high-claim nursing/infusion codes 96372 (30.6K claims, $734.2K, ranks #6 of 751, 99th percentile; extreme outlier), 96375 (37.8K claims, $680.9K, ranks #2 of 98, 99th percentile; extreme outlier), and supplemental IV/fluids 96361 (26.7K claims, $962.2K, ranks #2 of 85, 99th percentile; extreme outlier) point to sustained high throughput for medication administration and IV therapies that align with ED and short‑stay care patterns.

    From a payer-mix and risk perspective, the absence of Medicare billing and dependence on $81.6M of Medicaid revenue means the hospital's financial exposure within this dataset is highly concentrated in state Medicaid policy and utilization patterns; given the top-three codes account for 48.0% of Medicaid revenue, changes to ED/observation reimbursement or utilization would disproportionately impact the provider's Medicaid receipts.
