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

Why is the Medicaid comparison limited to Alaska 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. Alaska (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.

This provider reports total Medicare revenue of $334.6K and has no Medicaid billing on file, making their public payer exposure effectively single‑payer Medicare; the profile notes that the top 3 Medicare codes by revenue account for 36.8% of the provider’s Medicare receipts, indicating meaningful concentration in a few high‑value imaging services.

Taxonomy and code mix align with a diagnostic radiology practice focused on advanced cross‑sectional imaging: the highest‑revenue entries are MRI and CT services (notably 72197, 73721, and 74177), supplemented by PET/CT (78815), DXA (77080), ultrasound (76770/76700), and high counts of conventional radiography (71045/71046). This spread suggests a full‑service imaging operation that mixes higher‑margin advanced studies with high‑throughput plain films and bone density exams.

Revenue concentration is pronounced: 72197 yields $48K (18.3% of Medicare revenue), 73721 yields $25.1K (9.6%), and 74177 yields $23.5K (9.0%), and the dataset explicitly reports those three codes together represent 36.8% of total Medicare revenue. These figures point to the pelvis MRI (72197) as the single largest Medicare driver by far, with lower‑extremity MRI and abdomen/pelvis CT also key contributors.

Competitive standing by code shows uneven national positioning: 72197 is listed at #294 of 4732 providers (94th percentile) and 73721 at #858 of 9329 providers (91st percentile), reflecting above‑typical national activity for those MRI services even as the dataset labels their volumes as "typical, unremarkable"; by contrast 74177 sits at the 75th percentile (rank #5919 of 23621), a more middling national standing. Overall this reads as niche strength in specific MRI procedures despite a modest overall Medicare revenue base.

Activity metrics show high procedural throughput in low‑reimbursement imaging: 71045 has 916 claims and 71046 has 327 claims but each contributes only small revenue shares (71045 $8.2K, 3.1%; 71046 $4.6K, 1.7%). Likewise, 77080 (DXA) posts 275 claims for $6.9K (2.6%), indicating the practice pairs a handful of higher‑value cross‑sectional studies with high‑volume, low‑unit‑price services that drive patient throughput.

Absence of Medicaid billing is an important commercial signal: with "none below — this provider has no Medicaid billing on file," the provider’s public payer mix lacks Medicaid exposure and therefore may have limited engagement with the Medicaid population or billing arrangements in the state. That single‑payer profile could influence contracting leverage and referral patterns relative to peers who bill both Medicare and Medicaid.

Long tenure on file: the NPI was enumerated on 2005-11-09 (~21 years ago), indicating over two decades of registration in the Medicare system. This duration supports interpretation of observed patterns as established practice behavior rather than a short‑term anomaly.

Some specialized or resource‑intensive modalities appear present but at low national volume: 78815 (PET/CT) shows 19 claims for $11.2K and ranks #5596 of 6566 (13th percentile), a low relative position that the data labels as "typical, unremarkable volume"—suggesting limited oncology PET/CT throughput. Several other CT angiography and vascular/ultrasound codes fall into mid‑range percentiles, consistent with a broadly diversified imaging mix rather than dominance in advanced nuclear medicine or interventional vascular imaging.
