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

Why is the Medicaid comparison limited to Utah 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. Utah (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 activity is the sole payer footprint on file: total Medicare revenue is $592.7K and there is no Medicaid billing on file. That concentration makes the practice effectively single‑payer at the public program level and suggests revenue is driven almost entirely by Medicare patients rather than a mixed Medicaid/Medicare panel.

Revenue is highly concentrated in a small set of surgical codes: the precomputed top‑3 Medicare codes account for 58.0% of total Medicare revenue. Two Mohs surgery codes alone—17311 (27.1% of Medicare revenue, $160.2K) and 17312 (24.3% of Medicare revenue, $143.7K)—are the largest individual contributors, indicating procedural revenue is dominant.

The code mix indicates a surgical dermatology practice focused on skin cancer excision and reconstruction: high revenue from Mohs surgery codes 17311, 17312, 17313, and 17314, together with reconstructive graft/repair codes such as 14041 ($39.4K, 6.6%), 15260 ($28K, 4.7%), and 14301 ($22.8K, 3.8%). These line items point to a workflow of Mohs resections followed by local flap/graft repairs and complex closures rather than an emphasis on routine medical dermatology.

Competitive standing against national Medicare peers is modest-to-strong but not dominant. For example, 17312 ranks #190 of 2770 providers nationally (93th percentile) and is reported as typical, unremarkable volume; 14041 ranks #136 of 1009 (87th percentile) and is also labeled typical, unremarkable volume; 17311 ranks #758 of 2969 (74th percentile) and likewise is described as typical, unremarkable volume—together these suggest above‑median procedural volumes in certain Mohs and reconstructive codes without extreme outlier status.

Procedural work substantially outweighs office evaluation & management revenue: E/M code 99213 generates just $5.8K (1.0% of Medicare revenue) and 99212/99214 together contribute only a few thousand dollars more. That distribution signals a practice model centered on operative procedures and post‑operative care rather than routine clinic visits as the primary revenue stream.

The provider shows breadth within surgical/reconstructive offerings beyond Mohs: multiple complex repair codes (13121 $18.7K, 13132 $24.1K, 13101 $5.4K) and several local flap codes (14060, 14061, 14021, 14040) appear across the top‑25 list and generally rank in above‑median percentiles (several in the 70th–80th percentiles) and are described as typical, unremarkable volume. This pattern suggests the clinician is performing a steady mix of complex closures and flap/graft procedures consistent with a surgical dermatology referral practice.

Tenure on file is long enough to indicate an established practice: the NPI was enumerated on 2013-04-09 (~13 years ago). That duration, combined with a consistent Mohs/reconstruction code mix and no Medicaid billing, suggests an established, Medicare‑facing surgical dermatology operation with a stable referral base.

There are no extreme statistical outliers in the code set; most codes are labeled in the data as typical, unremarkable volume at their reported percentiles. A few codes sit at low national ranks (for example 88331 at the 7th percentile and 17110 at the 0th percentile) but these represent very small shares of revenue, reinforcing that the meaningful clinical and revenue signal is the concentrated Mohs + reconstruction suite rather than atypical billing behavior.
