    Key Findings

    This provider is a nephrology specialist focused on end-stage renal disease (ESRD) care: the dominant revenue sources are ESRD monthly management codes 90961, 90960, and 90962, and the code descriptions indicate routine face-to-face monthly dialysis management with varying visit frequencies. The prominence of these dialysis-management codes and the presence of hemodialysis procedure code 90935 in the top list indicate the practice is organized around outpatient dialysis patient management rather than general primary care.

    Medicare revenue concentration is high: the precomputed top-3 Medicare codes account for 85.8% of the provider's total Medicare revenue, signaling that the business is heavily dependent on a small set of ESRD-related services rather than a broad mix of evaluation-and-management visits. This concentration suggests revenue and utilization are tightly linked to ongoing dialysis patient panels.

    The provider’s Medicare revenue totals $305K while there is no Medicaid billing on file, making this effectively a single-payer (Medicare-only) billing profile in the available records. The absence of Medicaid activity means Medicaid does not contribute to this provider’s payer mix and any Medicaid-related competitive or access considerations cannot be assessed from these data.

    Competitive standing on key ESRD codes is strongly skewed: for 90961 the provider ranks #13 of 6091 nationally and is labeled an “extreme outlier” at the 100th percentile, indicating exceptionally high national volume on that code relative to peers. For 90962 the provider ranks #75 of 1844 (96th percentile) and is described as “notably above typical national volume,” while 90960 sits at #1147 of 6549 (82nd percentile) and is characterized as typical or unremarkable; together these ranks show the provider is a major national outlier for some ESRD services but more typical on others.

    Day-to-day ambulatory care component is present but secondary: E/M codes 99214 and 99204 appear in the top list and together represent a minority of revenue (99214 accounts for $32.4K, 10.6% of Medicare revenue). This suggests the practice also conducts office-based nephrology management for established and new patients in addition to its primary dialysis-management workload, but these visits are smaller drivers of revenue compared with ESRD monthly management codes.

    Clinical tenure is long: the NPI was enumerated on 2006-09-27 (about 20 years ago), which indicates substantial time in the Medicare program and potential longitudinal relationships with dialysis patients and facilities; this duration supports the plausibility of a large, stable ESRD patient panel.

    Procedure-level billing patterns show mixed inpatient and dialysis activity but no broad hospital-based revenue concentration: codes such as 99232 (subsequent hospital care) and 90935 (hemodialysis procedure including same-day E/M) are present but represent small shares of total Medicare revenue ($3.3K and $1.6K respectively), implying occasional inpatient or procedure encounters complement the dominant outpatient dialysis management services.

    Given the small overall Medicare revenue ($305K) and the extreme concentration in ESRD monthly management codes, financial risk or performance assessments should treat this provider as specialized and volume-driven: payers or contracting analysts evaluating network capacity or rate adequacy should focus on dialysis monthly bundle pricing and utilization rather than broad E/M fee schedules.
