    Key Findings

    NORTHEAST GEORGIA MEDICAL CENTER, INC. reports $112.9M in lifetime Medicaid revenue and has no Medicare billing on file, making it effectively a single-payer (Medicaid) billing profile in the available dataset. The provider’s NPI was enumerated 2005-06-30 (~21 years ago), indicating long-standing participation in public programs but with Medicaid as the dominant recorded payer.

    Revenue is highly concentrated in emergency department evaluation and management codes: the top three Medicaid codes (99284, 99283, 99285) together account for 46.2% of total Medicaid revenue. Individually those codes generate $14.5M (99284, 18.7%), $12.4M (99283, 15.9%), and $9M (99285, 11.6%), signaling that ED care is the primary revenue driver for this provider.

    The facility shows unusually large ED volumes relative to in‑state peers: 99282 ranks #1 of 50 providers in-state (100th percentile; extreme outlier) and 99283 and 99284 rank in the 98th and 97th percentiles respectively, with 99284 called an "extreme outlier" and 99283 a "notably above typical" volume. These rankings and percentiles indicate the center is a major regional ED destination with far higher Medicaid ED throughput than most Georgia hospitals.

    Beyond E/M visits, ancillary acute care services are heavily used: observation (G0378, $2.9M, rank #2 of 21, 95th percentile), high-volume IV infusion/administration codes (96361, 96365, 96375, 96374 collectively representing multiple top-25 entries), and frequent imaging for acute presentations. The combination of high observation hours and repeated IV administration codes aligns with a high-acuity ED and inpatient observation workflow rather than a primarily outpatient or elective case mix.

    Imaging and diagnostics contribute materially to Medicaid revenue and reinforce the acute-care profile: CT abdomen/pelvis with contrast 74177 ($4.8M, rank #2 of 70, 99th percentile), CT without contrast 74176 ($1.6M, rank #3 of 48, 96th percentile), chest CTA 71275 ($925.8K, rank #1 of 32, 100th percentile), and PET/CT 78815 ($1.3M, rank #1 of 11, 100th percentile) show substantial diagnostic throughput. Proprietary and high-throughput lab testing also appears, with 0202U ($2.8M, rank #2 of 8) and U0003 ($1.6M, rank #4 of 39), indicating in‑house or closely affiliated advanced testing capacity for infectious and respiratory panels.

    Cardiac diagnostic services are an important revenue stream: echocardiography 93306 ($2.1M, rank #3 of 59, 97th percentile), ECG technical 93005 ($1.2M, rank #1 of 31, 100th percentile), and myocardial SPECT studies 78452 ($1.2M, rank #2 of 19, 94th percentile) all appear in the top-25 Medicaid codes. These placements suggest sustained cardiac diagnostic volume supporting emergency and inpatient cardiology workflows.

    Several top codes are flagged as extreme outliers at the state level (e.g., 99282, 96361, 96375, 96374, 96365, 0241U, 71275, 93005, 59025), with multiple #1 rankings among peers; this pattern indicates the provider is a dominant Medicaid-volume center for a range of ED, infusion, imaging, and perinatal services in Georgia. Such concentration of top-percentile ranks supports the characterization of the hospital as a major regional hub for acute, high-throughput Medicaid care.

    Given the concentration of revenue in a small set of ED E/M codes (top three = 46.2% of Medicaid revenue) and numerous top-percentile procedural and diagnostic codes, the provider’s financial performance on Medicaid is heavily tied to emergency and acute diagnostic services. Analysts should treat this profile as a Medicaid-dependent, ED-centric operation with extensive on-site diagnostic and infusion capacity rather than a balanced Medicare/Medicaid mix.
