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 District of Columbia for Medicaid) — rank 1 means the highest claims volume for that code.

Why is the Medicaid comparison limited to District of Columbia 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. District of Columbia (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

This provider is effectively single‑payer in the data set: total Medicare revenue is $642.7K and there is no Medicaid billing on file. The precomputed metric shows the top 3 Medicare codes by revenue account for 56.0% of this provider's total Medicare revenue, indicating concentrated reliance on a few high‑value services for Medicare income.

The clinical mix is MRI‑centric: the three largest revenue drivers are 70551, 70553, and 72148, which correspond to brain MRI (non‑contrast), brain MRI with and without contrast sequencing, and lumbar spine MRI without contrast. These codes and supporting line items (e.g., 72141 for cervical MRI without contrast and 70544 for non‑contrast MRA) point to a diagnostic radiology operation focused on advanced neuro and spine imaging rather than primary care or procedural specialties.

Revenue concentration is pronounced: 70551, 70553, and 72148 together make up 56.0% of Medicare revenue, and individually each contributes a large share (70551: $125.6K, 20.3%; 70553: $115.9K, 18.7%; 72148: $104.6K, 16.9%). That concentration implies the provider’s Medicare financial performance will be sensitive to volume or reimbursement changes for a small set of MRI spine/brain codes.

National competitive standing on core MRI codes is strong: 70551 ranks #28 of 13508 providers nationally (100th percentile; extreme outlier), 70553 ranks #171 of 11271 (98th percentile; extreme outlier), and 72148 ranks #139 of 14990 (99th percentile; extreme outlier). These rank/percentile annotations indicate the provider bills far above typical national volumes for key brain and spine MRI services, placing them among national leaders in those specific procedures.

Modality breadth beyond MRI is present but less dominant: the provider bills CT head (70450: 162 claims, $89 avg paid/claim, $14.4K revenue, rank #10841 of 21092, 48th percentile) and screening/diagnostic mammography (77067: 128 claims, $152 avg paid/claim, $19.5K revenue, rank #9145 of 15198, 40th percentile; 77063: 129 claims, $61 avg paid/claim, $7.9K revenue, rank #8777 of 14277, 38th percentile). This pattern suggests MRI is the core service line while CT and mammography are supplementary revenue streams.

Payer‑rate signal and modality pricing are visible in per‑claim averages: 70553 shows a higher average paid/claim ($280) than 70551 ($180), and both are materially revenue‑productive (70553 revenue $115.9K; 70551 revenue $125.6K). The mix of higher‑paid contrast studies and higher volumes for non‑contrast exams suggests a workflow that performs both non‑contrast and contrast sequences on overlapping patient cohorts.

Several additional MRI/MRA spine and neuro codes also rank well nationally (for example, 72141 ranks #16 of 10999, 100th percentile, extreme outlier; 70544 ranks #115 of 4160, 97th percentile, notably above typical). These consistent high‑percentile designations across multiple brain/spine modalities reinforce that the provider is a specialized, high‑volume MRI performer at the national level for those procedures.

The provider has an established NPI history (NPI enumerated 2005-07-14 (~21 years ago)), indicating long tenure in the Medicare program. Combined with the concentrated MRI revenue and national outlier ranks, that tenure supports a hypothesis of sustained referral relationships or a stable diagnostic imaging role in their market, but the provider’s total Medicare revenue of $642.7K remains the single observed payer scale in the file.
