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 Louisiana for Medicaid) — rank 1 means the highest claims volume for that code.

Why is the Medicaid comparison limited to Louisiana 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. Louisiana (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

NORTHERN LOUISIANA CARDIAC SERVICES LLC reports $2.4M in lifetime Medicare revenue and has no Medicaid billing on file, making its commercial footprint effectively single‑payer Medicare in scope. This concentration means reimbursement and utilization patterns will be dominated by Medicare policy and fee schedules rather than by state Medicaid dynamics. Analysts should treat this entity as functionally Medicare-dependent for observed billing activity.

Revenue is highly concentrated in device implant and replacement procedures: the precomputed top-3 Medicare codes account for 52.2% of the provider’s Medicare revenue, led by 33249 ($555.5K, 23.6%), 33208 ($341.4K, 14.5%), and 33264 ($333.5K, 14.2%). These three codes together drive more than half of the $2.4M Medicare revenue, signaling that cardiac implantable device services are the primary revenue engine.

The code mix and descriptions indicate a specialized electrophysiology/cardiac device practice with significant interventional cardiology support: high revenue and counts for 33249, 33208, and 33264 reflect frequent ICD/pacemaker implants and generator exchanges, while 93458 ($290.3K, 12.3%) and C9600 ($267.9K, 11.4%) show concurrent imaging supervision for angiography and percutaneous stent procedures. In short, the operation combines device-based electrophysiology care with invasive coronary imaging and stenting capacity rather than being a general ambulatory surgery center.

On competitive standing, the provider is a high-volume national performer for several device codes: 33249 ranks #49 of 1011 providers nationally (95th percentile) and is described as notably above typical national volume, while 33208 ranks #95 of 3026 (97th percentile) and is also notably above typical volume. At the same time, 33264 ranks #23 of 154 (80th percentile) and is characterized as typical/unremarkable, so strength appears concentrated in specific implant/replacement procedures rather than uniformly across all device codes.

93458 (imaging supervision/interpretation for coronary angiography) is an extreme outlier in volume: 298 claims, $974 avg paid/claim, $290.3K revenue, and it ranks #12 of 7990 providers nationally (100th percentile; extreme outlier, far above typical national volume). This combination of very high claim count with substantial revenue share (12.3% of Medicare revenue) suggests routine high throughput for coronary angiography imaging services within the practice.

Per‑claim payment levels are concentrated in high-dollar device procedures, which amplify revenue from relatively small claim counts: 33264 carries an $18527 avg paid/claim and generated $333.5K, 33249 averages $17920 per claim and generated $555.5K, while 33208 averages $5597 and generated $341.4K. These high average payments per claim indicate a case mix centered on surgical device work and revisions that materially elevate Medicare revenue compared with lower‑paid diagnostic codes.

The practice has an established NPI tenure (enumerated on 2017-10-25 (~9 years ago)), giving it several years of recordable Medicare activity. Despite a modest absolute Medicare footprint of $2.4M in lifetime revenue, the provider’s concentrated specialty mix and multiple high‑percentile ranks (including extreme outlier status on 93458) mark it as a focused regional operator with outsized activity in specific cardiac device and angiography services.
