    Key Findings

    This provider’s Medicare revenue is $425K and there is no Medicaid billing on file, so the practice operates effectively as a Medicare-only billing entity in the available datasets. The absence of Medicaid activity means payer-mix analysis is one-sided and comparisons to in-state Medicaid peers are not applicable for this NPI.

    Revenue is highly concentrated: the precomputed top three Medicare codes account for 63.1% of the provider’s total Medicare revenue, driven by 99213 ($126.1K, 30.9%), 17004 ($93.7K, 23.0%), and 17000 ($37.4K, 9.2%). This concentration indicates a small set of services produces the majority of billed Medicare dollars for this provider.

    The procedural code mix points to an office-based dermatology practice focused on lesion management and routine outpatient care: large volumes of destructive lesion codes (17004, 17000, 17003) alongside a high-volume established patient E/M code (99213) indicate workflows centered on lesion destruction plus follow-up or medical management visits. Additional excision and repair codes (for example 12031 and multiple 11xxx/116xx excision codes) show the practice also performs surgical removals and closures.

    Two of the provider’s highest-revenue codes are extreme national outliers in volume: 99213 ranks #856 of 457151 providers (100th percentile; extreme outlier) and 17004 ranks #83 of 9638 providers (99th percentile; extreme outlier). Those rankings signal unusually high throughput for routine office E/M visits and for destruction of premalignant lesions compared with peers nationally.

    Several additional lesion-related codes show notably above-typical national volume, reinforcing the lesion-treatment focus: 17000 ranks #1225 of 21879 (94th percentile; notably above typical national volume), 17003 ranks #259 of 19643 (99th percentile; notably above typical national volume), and 11200 ranks #79 of 1711 (95th percentile; notably above typical national volume). These patterns point to consistent, high-frequency use of both single-lesion and multi-lesion destruction codes.

    By contrast, many excision and repair codes fall in mid-to-lower national percentiles (for example 12031 ranks #84 of 1127, 92th percentile; 11602 ranks #693 of 5197, 86th percentile), indicating that while the practice performs surgical excisions and closures, these services are not as disproportionately dominant as the lesion-destruction and E/M volumes. The mix suggests a blend of high-volume, low-complexity procedures supplemented by routine surgical dermatology.

    From a business-risk and operational perspective, dependence on a concentrated set of high-volume codes (top 3 = 63.1%) likely shapes appointment flow, staffing, and supply needs toward lesion-destruction workflows and frequent return visits. Because a majority of Medicare revenue comes from a few codes, any changes in utilization patterns, coding rules, or reimbursement for those services could materially impact revenue.

    The provider has a long tenure in the Medicare program (NPI enumerated 2006-11-15, ~20 years ago), and that longevity combined with the high national ranks for several codes suggests an established local practice with unusually high procedural throughput for certain dermatology services. The lack of Medicaid billing further defines the provider’s payer footprint as focused on Medicare (and presumably commercial payers outside this dataset), not on Medicaid populations.
