    Key Findings

    This facility is Medicare-dominant: reported total Medicare revenue of $1.3M versus total Medicaid revenue of $6.4K, making Medicaid de minimis in scale relative to Medicare for this provider. The Medicaid book of business is effectively negligible compared with Medicare, so payer-focused analyses should treat this as a primarily Medicare outpatient surgery center.

    Medicare revenue is highly concentrated in a trio of ophthalmology-related items: the top three Medicare codes (66984, J1096, J1097) account for 85.7% of this provider's total Medicare revenue. Individually, 66984 generated $708.8K (52.9%), J1096 generated $249.6K (18.6%), and J1097 generated $189.9K (14.2%), indicating that cataract surgery and associated intraoperative ophthalmic drugs drive the bulk of Medicare receipts.

    The code mix aligns with an ambulatory ophthalmic surgical model: as an Ambulatory Surgical Clinic/Center, the provider bills high volumes of cataract extraction with intraocular lens procedures (66984) alongside intraoperative ophthalmic inserts and irrigation drugs (J1096, J1097). This combination of surgical CPT and injectable/implantable ophthalmic products is typical for an outpatient cataract surgery center that routinely uses adjunct pharmacologic products during procedures.

    National competitive standing on Medicare shows a solid but not outsized footprint for core cataract services: 66984 ranks #1969 of 15965 providers nationally (88th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume), while the ophthalmic insert J1096 ranks #33 of 282 providers nationally (89th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume) and the irrigation solution J1097 ranks #120 of 443 providers nationally (typical, unremarkable volume). The provider also posts a high relative position on laser capsulotomy (66821 ranked #308 of 10087, 97th percentile), suggesting above-average use of that follow-up procedure among peers.

    On Medicaid the picture is concentrated and regionally prominent: Medicaid revenue is entirely attributable to 66984 (912 claims, $7 avg paid/claim, $6.4K revenue) and that code ranks #1 of 25 providers in-state (100th percentile; notably above typical state volume). Despite the low absolute Medicaid dollars, the provider is the top in-state reporter of Medicaid 66984 volume, implying a unique local role in delivering Medicaid-covered cataract procedures even though reimbursement per claim is very low.

    Several Medicaid-listed codes show reported claims with $0 average paid/claim (G8907, G8918, C9447), which indicates the provider is recording certain administrative or quality-related codes in Medicaid billing without associated paid revenue. Analysts should treat those zero-paid entries as non-revenue operational reporting rather than as material contributors to Medicaid cashflow.

    The provider has long tenure in the Medicare/Medicaid ecosystem, with an NPI enumerated on 2006-07-06 (~20 years ago). This long-standing enrollment supports interpretation of observed patterns as established practice behavior rather than a brief or transient billing profile.

    The prominent revenue contribution from intraoperative drug codes (J1096 and J1097) alongside 66984 suggests that pharmacologic adjuncts are a consistent part of the clinical workflow and billing mix. Given that J1096 and J1097 together are two of the three codes driving 85.7% of Medicare revenue, payers and competitive analysts should consider both surgical volume and drug utilization when modeling reimbursement, supply procurement, or local market share for outpatient cataract care.
