    Key Findings

    This provider’s Medicare footprint is modest in absolute scale but concentrated in major joint arthroplasty: total Medicare revenue is $256.5K, and the top three Medicare codes (27447, 27130, 99214) account for 47.5% of that revenue. The two largest single-code contributions are 27447 ($51.8K, 20.2%) and 27130 ($48.7K, 19.1%), indicating that knee and hip replacement procedures are primary revenue drivers for the practice.

    Clinical/service-line mix is strongly orthopaedic surgical with ancillary outpatient services: high-revenue surgical CPTs 27447 and 27130 point to joint replacement as core work, while high counts for imaging (73564 — X‑rays of the knee) and injection codes (20610, J7325, J3301) show significant clinic-based diagnostics and conservative care. The presence of 0055T (computer‑assisted surgical navigation) with $12.7K revenue supports use of advanced implant positioning technology alongside joint replacement surgery.

    Revenue concentration is significant: the top three Medicare codes are responsible for 47.5% of Medicare revenue, with 27447 alone contributing $51.8K (20.2%) and 27130 contributing $48.7K (19.1%). This concentration signals dependence on a small number of high‑value surgical procedures for most Medicare income, which has implications for capacity planning and payer negotiations focused on joint replacement bundles.

    Payer mix is effectively single‑payer: there is no Medicaid billing on file and Medicare totals $256.5K, so the provider operates as a Medicare‑driven practice rather than a mixed Medicaid/Medicare provider. Analysts should treat Medicaid as absent from this provider’s revenue picture when modeling population access or network adequacy in‑state.

    Competitive standing for core arthroplasty is modestly above typical: 27447 ranks #3341 of 12089 nationally (72th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume) and 27130 ranks #1695 of 8062 (78th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume), indicating the provider performs a reasonable but not dominant number of joint replacements compared with peers. By contrast, use of CT/MRI‑guided navigation (0055T) ranks #57 of 432 (87th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume), suggesting this provider is an above‑typical adopter of surgical navigation among the smaller group of users.

    Imaging volume for specific X‑ray codes is an outlier in utilization: 73564 (knee X‑rays) is noted as a 99th percentile result and labeled an "extreme outlier, far above typical national volume," with 458 claims and $12.4K revenue. That concentrated, very high knee radiography volume implies significant clinic throughput for musculoskeletal imaging that may reflect on-site radiography services or protocolized pre/post‑op imaging workflows.

    Several outpatient procedures and injections appear at high relative volume: 20610 (joint injections) ranks in the 92th percentile and J3301 (triamcinolone) ranks in the 98th percentile (2.5K claims, $2.5K revenue, notably above typical national volume), indicating frequent use of intra‑articular therapies and conservative management in the clinic. This pattern complements the surgical arthroplasty work and suggests a full‑spectrum orthopaedic practice managing both operative and nonoperative care.

    Provider tenure is long enough to indicate established practice patterns: NPI enumerated 2010-08-24 (~16 years ago), which supports interpreting current coding and utilization as stable rather than a transient startup effect. Analysts can reasonably use the recent Medicare code mix as representative of the provider’s established service lines and referral patterns.
