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

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

Clinical/service-line profile: The provider's Medicare code mix is strongly procedural and interventional, centered on image-guided spinal and joint injections consistent with an Interventional Pain Medicine Physician. High-volume spinal procedures such as 62323 (290 claims) and sacroiliac joint injections 27096 (206 claims) are prominent, and frequent use of imaging guidance is supported by both fluoroscopic codes and a very high count for 76942 (340 claims).

Revenue concentration: The provider's Medicare revenue is concentrated in a handful of procedures — the top 3 Medicare codes by revenue (62323, 27096, 64635) account for 43.9% of this provider's total Medicare revenue, signaling reliance on image‑guided injection and neurolytic procedures for revenue generation.

Payer mix and scale: This profile is effectively single‑payer Medicare — Total Medicare revenue is $256K and there is no Medicaid billing on file (none below), so Medicaid contributes no measurable revenue for this NPI.

Competitive standing by code: The provider ranks well above peers on several injection and imaging codes: 27096 ranks #79 of 5443 providers nationally (99th percentile; extreme outlier, far above typical national volume) and 62323 ranks #314 of 7397 (96th percentile; notably above typical national volume), indicating a nationally elevated procedural volume in sacroiliac and lumbar epidural injections. In contrast, 64635 ranks #1834 of 5957 (68th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume), showing that radiofrequency/neurolytic services are closer to typical peer levels.

High-volume ancillary items and drug claims: The record shows very high claim counts for certain supplies/drugs and ultrasound guidance — J1030 has 1.1K claims ($6 avg paid/claim) and J1100 has 4.5K claims with $0 avg paid/claim and $0 revenue, while 76942 (ultrasound guidance) is in the 99th percentile nationally. These counts suggest frequent use of injectables and imaging support in procedural workflows, though some lines (J1100, J2250) show $0 recorded revenue in these files.

Mix of procedures and office evaluation: The billing mix includes both procedural codes and evaluation/management visits, with 99214 (127 claims, $89 avg paid/claim, $11.3K revenue) and 99204 (74 claims, $118 avg paid/claim, $8.7K revenue) present alongside numerous injection codes. This indicates the practice manages both new/established office care and a high volume of interventional procedures rather than being purely procedure-only.

Local/state Medicaid comparators: There is no Medicaid billing on file (none below), so the provider cannot be benchmarked against in‑state Medicaid peers and appears to operate without measurable Medicaid revenue at this NPI.

Tenure and operational implications: The NPI was enumerated 2012-06-21 (~14 years ago), indicating an established practice history; combined with concentrated Medicare revenue ($256K) and several nationally high percentiles for specific injection and imaging codes, this suggests an experienced interventional pain practice that focuses on a narrow set of high-frequency procedures rather than a broad multi‑payer outpatient or inpatient revenue base.
