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

Why is the Medicaid comparison limited to North Dakota 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. North Dakota (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.

The Medicare and Medicaid tables are both single current snapshots, not refreshed on a recurring schedule yet.

Key Findings

This provider is effectively single‑payer in the dataset: total Medicare revenue is $504K while there is no Medicaid billing on file. The NPI was enumerated 2006-11-22 (~20 years ago), indicating long tenure in the Medicare program which supports interpretation of stable practice patterns over time.

Revenue is highly concentrated in a small set of ophthalmology procedures: the precomputed top three Medicare codes account for 57.8% of the provider’s total Medicare revenue. The single largest source is 66984 ($161.7K; 32.1% of total Medicare revenue), followed by 66821 ($69K; 13.7%) and 67028 ($60.6K; 12.0%), which together dominate the practice’s Medicare earnings.

The code mix points to a cataract‑ and procedure‑oriented ophthalmology practice supplemented by retina injections and diagnostic imaging. High surgical codes include 66984 (cataract extraction with IOL insertion), 66982 and 66991 (complex or combined cataract/IOL procedures), while 66821 (YAG capsulotomy) and 67028 (intravitreal injection) indicate frequent post‑op laser care and medical retina work. Substantial diagnostic activity is shown by 92134 (1.4K claims, $24.3K revenue, 4.8% of Medicare revenue) and 92136 (620 claims, $14.9K revenue, 3.0% of Medicare revenue).

Competitive standing by code is mixed: for the primary revenue driver 66984 the provider ranks #2954 of 15965 (81th percentile) and is characterized as typical, unremarkable national volume for that surgery; for 66821 the provider ranks #494 of 10087 (95th percentile) — a high national rank but the data label still calls the volume typical; and for 67028 the provider ranks #1581 of 4255 (63th percentile) consistent with modest national activity in intravitreal injections. Overall, the practice does not appear to be a dominant national player for cataract surgery but shows above‑typical activity on selected laser and imaging codes.

There are notable statistical outliers and above‑typical signals that merit attention: 99204 is flagged as an extreme outlier, far above typical national volume for this code (322 claims, $30.6K revenue, 6.1% of Medicare revenue). Several diagnostic/imaging codes are described as notably above typical national volume — specifically 92134 (94th percentile), 92136 (95th percentile), and 92083 (95th percentile) — which together point to heavier than average use of retinal imaging and visual field testing in this practice.

The revenue per‑claim profile reinforces a surgical center of gravity: surgical/interventional codes show materially higher avg paid/claim (examples: 66984 $330 avg paid/claim; 66982 $462; 66991 $425) while E/M and imaging codes pay much less per claim (examples: 99214 $68; 92134 $18). This mix implies that a relatively small number of higher‑paid procedures generate the bulk of dollars, while diagnostic and office visits provide volume and follow‑up care.

Operational implications for payers and network planners include concentrated dependence on Medicare ($504K) with no Medicaid presence, which may affect negotiations and coverage decisions in markets where Medicaid access is relevant. The combination of concentrated surgical revenue (top three codes = 57.8%), high imaging volumes, and an extreme outlier in 99204 suggests the practice functions as a referral center for complex/new patient consults and post‑operative laser and injection management; these patterns are concrete signals to validate referral flows and ensure appropriate network and prior‑authorization design.
