BTX IOWA INC. appears to operate primarily as a mobile/portable diagnostic imaging supplier: the Medicare and Medicaid revenue mix is dominated by transportation/setup and portable x‑ray service codes (R0070, R0075, Q0092) consistent with a business that brings portable x‑ray equipment and personnel to homes and nursing facilities rather than an in‑clinic imaging center. The presence of many extremity and chest radiography codes (e.g., 71046, 73502, 73030) further supports a service line focused on basic diagnostic radiography performed offsite.
Revenue is concentrated in a very small number of Medicare codes: the precomputed top‑3 Medicare codes account for 85.0% of total Medicare revenue, with R0070 alone representing $773.3K or 66.4% of Medicare revenue. This concentration indicates that transportation and single‑patient portable x‑ray trips are the primary Medicare revenue drivers and that any changes to reimbursement or utilization of those specific codes would materially affect Medicare income.
Medicaid revenue is similarly concentrated: the top‑3 Medicaid codes account for 72.7% of total Medicaid revenue, with R0070 accounting for $135.3K (43.3% of Medicaid revenue) and Q0092 and 71046 also large contributors. On Medicaid the provider appears even more focused on high claim volumes for set‑up and single‑patient transport codes, suggesting heavy reliance on state Medicaid policies that reimburse portable imaging and equipment setup.
The payer mix shows Medicare is the larger revenue source in scale compared with Medicaid: Total Medicare revenue is $1.2M versus Total Medicaid revenue of $317.6K, indicating Medicare receipts are roughly several times larger than Medicaid receipts. This means the provider is not single‑payer dependent but is Medicare‑weighted, so Medicare policy, coverage, and reimbursement changes will have an outsized impact on overall revenue.
Competitive standing varies by payer and code: for Medicare, R0070 ranks #39 of 285 providers nationally (87th percentile) which the data flags as typical/unremarkable volume for that code at the national level, while several diagnostic radiography codes (e.g., 71046, 73502, 73030, 72100) are labeled as extreme outliers or far above typical national volume, placing the provider in the 100th percentile on those imaging CPTs. For Medicaid in‑state comparisons the provider is a market leader on core operational codes — R0070 and Q0092 rank #1 of 3 in‑state (100th percentile) and several imaging codes (73502, 71046) rank at or near the top of state peers, indicating strong statewide presence for portable imaging services.
Tenure and stability: the NPI was enumerated ~21 years ago (2005-09-01), indicating a long operational history in this market and suggesting established relationships with facilities and payers supporting recurring portable imaging workflows. This longevity supports the observed high claim volumes and state‑level leadership for core portable imaging codes.
Statistical outlier patterns indicate mixed signals: several imaging CPTs (e.g., 71046, 73502, 73030, 74019, 72100) are described as extreme outliers or far above typical national volume on Medicare, implying unusually high per‑provider volumes for those diagnostic x‑ray services compared with national peers. Conversely, the key revenue code R0070 is characterized as a typical national volume position for Medicare despite being the largest revenue source, suggesting the provider earns its dominant Medicare revenue through many moderate‑sized trips rather than an exceptional per‑provider rate.
Operational implication for payers and network planners: because transportation/setup codes (R0070, Q0092, R0075) dominate both Medicare and Medicaid revenue, contracting or utilization‑management strategies that target portable imaging logistics (trip consolidation, multi‑patient visits, or preauthorization of offsite imaging) could materially affect costs and access. Given the provider’s state leadership on core Medicaid portable imaging codes, payers should include BTX IOWA INC. in discussions on network coverage for in‑home and nursing‑home radiography services.
