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

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

This provider is effectively a Medicare-only billing entity: total Medicare revenue is $473.3K and Medicaid revenue is none, and the NPI was enumerated on 2006-07-17 (~20 years ago), indicating long tenure in the market. The lack of any Medicaid billing on file makes this a single-payer (Medicare) profile for analytic and contracting comparisons within the state and nationally.

Revenue is highly concentrated in advanced cardiac imaging and associated supplies: the precomputed top 3 Medicare codes (78492, 93306, A9555) account for 48.1% of this provider’s Medicare revenue. Individually those codes are 78492 at $96.6K (21.3%), 93306 at $61.3K (13.5%), and A9555 at $60.1K (13.3%), which together imply a business model driven by myocardial perfusion PET, echocardiography, and rubidium radiopharmaceutical studies.

The service mix indicates an imaging‑centric cardiology practice rather than a primary outpatient clinic: top CPT/HCPCS items are 78492 (myocardial perfusion PET), 93306 (transthoracic echo), A9555 (Rubidium rb-82 doses), plus multiple cardiac MRI/CT codes (75563, 75561, 75574, 71555). Presence of high claim counts for procedure codes (e.g., 552 claims for 93306 and 76 claims for 78492) alongside stress agents J2785 (381 claims) and A9555 (151 claims) points to a steady throughput of stress testing and advanced imaging studies.

Competitive standing is mixed across modalities: 93306 ranks #2769 of 24624 nationally (89th percentile) and 75563 ranks #11 of 121 (92th percentile), placing the provider above many peers for echocardiography and cardiac MRI volumes, while 78492 ranks #397 of 926 (57th percentile), a more median position. The source labels for many codes characterize volumes as "typical, unremarkable volume," even where percentiles are high, so this provider appears to be a capable regional performer in specific imaging lines rather than a dominant national outlier.

Operational throughput is visible in both diagnostic and E/M lines: routine ECG interpretation 93010 shows 958 claims, established office visits 99214 have 312 claims, and inpatient subsequent care codes (e.g., 99233 at 97 claims) are present. This mix suggests the practice handles both ambulatory diagnostic workflow and hospital-based follow-up, supporting imaging services with associated outpatient and inpatient evaluation-and-management activity.

There are supply-intensive elements to the revenue mix: A9555 (Rubidium rb-82) and J2785 (regadenoson) together contribute material revenue ($60.1K and $16.4K respectively) and substantial claim counts, reflecting a repeated-use, consumables-driven component to the cardiac stress/PET service line. Analysts should note that payment exposure for these supply codes can materially affect margins and utilization patterns for the provider’s imaging program.

From a payer-strategy perspective, the combination of long tenure (NPI since 2006-07-17 ~20 years ago), concentrated imaging revenue (top 3 codes = 48.1%), and no Medicaid billing (none) suggests a specialized, Medicare-focused cardiac imaging practice with established referral relationships. For network or value-based negotiations, the provider’s strengths appear to be in echocardiography and cardiac MRI capacity, while PET perfusion and CT angiography activity are present but less dominant, which could guide targeted contracting or service-line partnership discussions.
