    Key Findings

    OMAR PUNJABI is an ophthalmology physician in CHARLOTTE, NC with an NPI enumerated 2008-08-01 (~18 years ago). Lifetime Medicare revenue on file is $2.3M while Medicaid billing is none, making this effectively a Medicare-only billing profile in our dataset.

    Revenue is highly concentrated: the top 3 Medicare codes (J0178, 99214, 67028) account for 91.6% of this provider's total Medicare revenue. J0178 alone represents 72.1% of Medicare revenue, while 99214 and 67028 represent 12.6% and 6.8% respectively, indicating a small number of services drive nearly all reported Medicare income.

    The code mix—dominant revenue from J0178 (aflibercept injection) with substantial claim counts for intravitreal procedure 67028 and high-volume office visits 99214—points to a medical-retina–oriented practice model focused on intravitreal anti-VEGF therapy and frequent follow-up visits. High utilization of retinal imaging 92134 (3.2K claims) further supports an office workflow built around diagnosis, imaging, and repeated in-office injections.

    Despite J0178 producing the largest share of revenue (2.4K claims and 72.1% of Medicare revenue), the provider's national rank for J0178 is #361 of 3204 (89th percentile) and is described as typical, unremarkable volume for this code; similarly 67028 ranks #577 of 4255 (86th percentile) and is also typical, unremarkable volume. Those ranks suggest the practice earns most of its revenue from a widely used, high-dollar service without being an extreme national outlier for aflibercept or intravitreal injection volume.

    99214 and 92134 are statistical outliers for this provider: 99214 ranks #217 of 479517 (100th percentile; extreme outlier, far above typical national volume) and 92134 ranks #319 of 26868 (99th percentile; extreme outlier, far above typical national volume). This indicates unusually high visit and OCT imaging throughput versus national peers, suggesting a very high patient volume or follow-up cadence in outpatient evaluation and management and retinal imaging.

    The absence of any Medicaid billing on file (none) means payer mix is essentially single-payer Medicare at scale; this limits exposure to Medicaid populations and creates dependence on Medicare policy and reimbursement for practice economics. For contracting and network strategy, the practice should be approached as a Medicare-centric retina clinic rather than a dual-payer ambulatory provider.

    Concentration risk is material given J0178 accounts for 72.1% of Medicare revenue and the top three codes account for 91.6% of revenue; changes to reimbursement, drug utilization patterns, or shifts from aflibercept to alternate agents could meaningfully affect overall revenue. Offsetting this, very high volumes of 99214 visits and 92134 imaging suggest stable downstream visit and diagnostic activity that could sustain patient flow even if drug mix shifts.

    Overall scale and tenure are consistent with an established mid-sized Medicare-focused ophthalmology practice: $2.3M lifetime Medicare revenue and an NPI active since 2008-08-01 (~18 years) indicate sustained Medicare billing over time, but the complete lack of Medicaid claims implies limited engagement with Medicaid populations or settings that serve safety-net patients.
