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

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

Key Findings

This provider’s Medicare billing is heavily concentrated in a small set of radiation-therapy–related codes: 77280 ($200.5K, 37.8% of Medicare revenue), G6001 ($141.1K, 26.6%), and 77427 ($32.7K, 6.2%). The precomputed summary states the top 3 Medicare codes by revenue account for 70.6% of this provider's total Medicare revenue, indicating a very high revenue concentration in these procedures. These three codes together drive the majority of the $535.2K in reported Medicare revenue.

Code-level mix suggests the practice is performing substantial radiation therapy planning and delivery activities rather than being limited to routine dermatologic office visits: high-revenue items include simulation/planning (77280), ultrasonic guidance for radiation fields (G6001), and radiation treatment delivery (77427), and there are multiple supporting radiation-planning and physics codes reported (for example, 77401 $29.2K and 77336 $8.6K). That pattern is notable given the provider taxonomy listed as Dermatology Physician and implies the operation’s service line is materially centered on radiation therapy procedures in the Medicare population.

On competitive standing, the provider is a high-volume national outlier for simulation/planning work: 77280 ranks #92 of 3348 providers nationally and is described as notably above typical national volume for this code (97th percentile). By contrast, G6001 (rank #70 of 280, 75th percentile) and 77427 (rank #1295 of 4720, 72th percentile) are in the mid-to-upper range versus peers and are described as typical, unremarkable volumes for those codes, indicating dominant presence on 77280 specifically but more modest positioning for other radiation codes.

Although the practice bills common dermatology office and procedure codes, these generate only a minority of Medicare revenue: 99213 accounts for $28.3K (5.3%), 11102 $14.1K (2.7%), and 17000 $11.6K (2.2%). These established-office and lesion-procedure codes form secondary revenue streams alongside the radiation therapy–focused top codes, showing a mixed procedural profile rather than pure office-based dermatology billing.

The provider appears effectively single-payer in scope on file: total Medicare revenue is $535.2K while there is no Medicaid billing on file. The absence of any Medicaid claims means the billing footprint is concentrated in Medicare and suggests payer-mix sensitivity — program-level reimbursement or regulatory changes to Medicare radiation codes could have outsized impact on total revenue.

There are distinctive utilization patterns in lower-revenue items that are operationally meaningful: J7345 shows 6.6K claims but only $6.6K revenue ($1 avg paid/claim), indicating very high claim volume with extremely low per-claim reimbursement for this topical drug. Separately, 77401 (deleted effective Jan. 1, 2026) currently represents $29.2K (5.5%) of Medicare revenue, so the scheduled deletion of this code may materially affect future revenue reporting and should be watched.

Tenure and billing history are long-standing: the NPI enumeration date is 2006-10-10 (~20 years ago), which aligns with an established billing history and durable Medicare activity. This length of enumeration supports the interpretation that the radiation-focused billing profile is not a short-lived artifact but a persistent pattern over many years.

Several support and specialty radiation codes are reported at low national volumes, which refines the service-line picture: for example, 77334 ranks #4415 of 4463 (1th percentile) and 77300 ranks #3881 of 4719 (17th percentile), both described as typical, unremarkable volumes for those codes. Taken together with the high rank on 77280, this suggests the provider concentrates on specific simulation/planning services rather than offering the full spectrum of specialized dosimetry/device construction services at high volume.
