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

Why is the Medicaid comparison limited to North Carolina 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 Carolina (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 is effectively single-payer in the datasets available: total Medicare revenue is $2.7M while Medicaid billing is listed as none (no Medicaid billing on file). The NPI was enumerated on 2006-04-11 (~20 years ago), indicating long-standing participation in Medicare and an established billing history to analyze for referral and capacity trends.

Revenue is highly concentrated in intravitreal drug administration: the precomputed top-3 Medicare codes account for 76.9% of this provider's total Medicare revenue. The three top drivers are J0178 ($1.3M, 47.0%), J2777 ($577.7K, 21.7%), and J2778 ($219.4K, 8.2%), which together dominate the Medicare revenue profile.

The code mix and dominant CPT/HCPCS entries indicate an interventional retina practice focused on intravitreal injections and pharmacologic management of retinal disease. High counts and revenues for J0178, J2777, and J2778 alongside procedure 67028 (1.8K claims, $153.6K, 5.8%) show routine administration of anti-VEGF and related retinal injections as the core service line.

On competitive standing for the top drugs, this provider performs at modest-to-typical national volumes: J0178 ranks #621 of 3204 providers nationally (81th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume), J2777 ranks #535 of 2039 (74th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume), and J2778 ranks #363 of 1208 (70th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume). These rankings suggest solid local throughput without being a national-volume outlier for these drug administrations.

Diagnostic imaging is an outlier relative to national peers: 92134 shows 2.8K claims and $78.2K in revenue and is flagged as an extreme outlier at the 98th percentile (extreme outlier, far above typical national volume). This unusually high OCT imaging volume implies the practice provides intensive retinal imaging and monitoring, which likely supports its injection-driven treatment pathway and referral capture.

Evaluation & management coding shows concentrated high activity for both new and established visits, with 99214 at 570 claims ($49.6K, 1.9%; 92th percentile; typical) and 99204 at 294 claims ($33.8K, 1.3%; 99th percentile; extreme outlier). The elevated 99204 level in particular suggests above-typical new patient evaluation flow, consistent with a referral-focused specialty clinic onboarding new retinal patients.

The provider uses a range of specialty therapeutics and implants in addition to anti-VEGF agents: J0179 (brolucizumab) accounts for $165.2K (6.2%) and ranks #15 of 64 providers (78th percentile; typical), while J7312 (dexamethasone implant) contributes $65.5K (2.5%) and ranks in the 84th percentile. This mix indicates both adoption of newer agents and use of sustained-release implants as part of the retinal treatment portfolio.

Taken together, the pattern—heavy Medicare revenue concentration in a few injection codes, extreme outlier status for OCT imaging (92134), and high new-patient visit coding—paints a profile of a long-tenured, procedure-focused ophthalmology practice with high local throughput. For payers and network planners this suggests the provider is a reliable source of retina procedural volume and imaging services but is not a dominant national supplier of anti-VEGF administrations.
