    Key Findings

    This provider’s Medicare revenue totals $379.7K and there is no Medicaid billing on file, so the practice is effectively single‑payer with Medicare accounting for the entire recorded public-payor activity. The absence of any Medicaid CPT/HCPCS entries confirms no Medicaid revenue stream to compare against Medicare in this profile.

    Revenue is highly concentrated in remote physiologic monitoring (RPM) and related services: the precomputed top-3 Medicare codes (99458, 99457, 99454) together account for 74.2% of total Medicare revenue. Individually those codes generate $126.1K (99458), $117.8K (99457), and $37.2K (99454), indicating the practice’s financial footprint is dominated by RPM billing.

    The code mix strongly indicates an operational model built around RPM and structured remote care management rather than routine office-based care. Key RPM codes include 99458 and 99457 (real‑time interactive RPM management) plus 99454 and 99453 (device supply and setup), and the presence and revenue for 99453 ($3.1K) and 99454 ($37.2K) show the practice is billing both equipment/setup and ongoing monitoring.

    For competitive standing, the provider is a national outlier on core RPM codes: 99458 ranks #31 of 3715 providers (99th percentile; extreme outlier) and 99457 ranks #40 of 6044 providers (99th percentile; extreme outlier), signaling a dominant national position for those services. By contrast, 99454 ranks #321 of 5663 (94th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume), which suggests the provider’s RPM device-supply volume is high but not as extreme as its management-time billing.

    Traditional in-person E/M services appear modest relative to RPM activity, consistent with a remote-first service line. For example, 99202 produced $13.9K and ranks #55 of 20840 providers (100th percentile; extreme outlier) while common established-visit codes such as 99213 ($4.3K, 44th percentile) and 99212 ($680, 21st percentile) are far less prominent, implying fewer routine office visits billed to Medicare.

    Several telephone/virtual visit codes also show unusually high volume nationally, reinforcing the remote-care profile: 99441 generated $31.3K and ranks #24 of 10645 providers (100th percentile; extreme outlier), while 99443 produced $20.9K and ranks #341 of 14283 providers (98th percentile; notably above typical national volume). These rankings indicate the provider is billing far more telephonic or virtual E/M time than most peers.

    Programmatic breadth is suggested by ancillary preventive and care‑coordination services on file: 99490 (care coordination) contributed $14.6K (3.8% of Medicare revenue) and G0438 (initial AWV) contributed $3.4K, both at percentiles labeled as typical or modest nationally. The mix shows the provider pairs RPM with elements of chronic care management and preventive screening rather than relying solely on one narrow procedure.

    The provider’s NPI was enumerated on 2010-10-18 (~16 years ago), indicating an established billing history; despite long tenure, the current Medicare footprint is concentrated in RPM and virtual care codes rather than broad-based in-person Medicaid or Medicare services. Given the lack of Medicaid activity, any payer-portfolio growth would likely need to come from expanding into Medicaid or diversifying beyond RPM within Medicare.
