    Key Findings

    This provider is effectively single‑payer: Total Medicare revenue is $5.1M while Total Medicaid revenue is none (no Medicaid billing on file), so the practice’s entire reported public‑payer volume in these data is Medicare‑driven. Analysts should treat Medicare reimbursement dynamics as the primary revenue lever for this provider.

    Revenue is highly concentrated in anti‑VEGF and intravitreal injection activity: the precomputed top‑3 Medicare codes account for 82.8% of this provider's Medicare revenue, led by J0178 ($2.9M, 56.8%), Q5128 ($1.1M, 20.7%), and 67028 ($269.3K, 5.3%). This concentration indicates operational dependence on a narrow set of office‑based injection services and associated drug administration.

    The practice shows national‑scale volume for key injectable therapies: J0178 ranks #53 of 3204 providers nationally (98th percentile; notably above typical national volume for this code) and Q5128 ranks #11 of 373 providers nationally (97th percentile; notably above typical national volume for this code). These ranks position the provider as a high‑volume national participant for aflibercept and the ranibizumab biosimilar, suggesting substantial throughput relative to peers.

    Diagnostic retinal imaging is a second major service line by utilization: 92134 has 3.7K claims and $107.2K revenue (2.1%) and ranks #183 of 26868 providers nationally (99th percentile; extreme outlier), while 92235 has 878 claims and $93.9K revenue (1.8%) and ranks #30 of 2192 providers nationally (99th percentile; extreme outlier). The combination of very high imaging volumes with the injection codes indicates an office structure optimized for frequent monitoring and same‑day or serial treatment of retinal disease.

    Drug billing beyond the top two anti‑VEGF products shows additional revenue lines but at smaller scale: J3490 accounts for $183.5K (3.6%) across 99 claims and is described as typical/unremarkable volume (rank #797 of 2838; 72th percentile), and J2781 contributes $156.6K (3.1%) with 1.3K claims (rank #71 of 490; 86th percentile). These secondary drug codes provide measurable but non‑dominant revenue and are consistent with a retina practice that uses multiple intravitreal therapies.

    Surgical vitreoretinal procedures are a minor portion of billed services: 67042 appears with 23 claims and $20.4K revenue (0.4%), and 67036 with 14 claims and $9.7K revenue (0.2%), both reflecting much lower volume relative to injections and imaging. This profile supports an ambulatory, injection‑centered practice model rather than a surgery‑heavy retina center.

    Operationally, the provider’s high throughput on a few codes creates sensitivity to drug mix and reimbursement shifts: with $5.1M in Medicare revenue concentrated in a small set of injection and imaging codes, policy or market changes affecting J0178, Q5128, or intravitreal injection reimbursement could materially affect revenue. Analysts should flag this concentration when modeling revenue risk or negotiating payer contracts.

    The provider is established in the marketplace: NPI enumerated (registered) 2005-12-20 (~21 years ago), indicating long tenure that plausibly supports the high national rankings observed for key injection and imaging codes. Tenure combined with concentrated high volumes suggests a mature, specialized outpatient retinal practice with sustained referral and treatment workflows.
