    Key Findings

    This provider’s Medicare activity dominates its public-payer footprint: Total Medicare revenue is $651.1K while there is no Medicaid billing on file, making DAVID SLADE effectively a Medicare-only biller in the dataset. The top three Medicare codes account for 44.3% of the provider’s Medicare revenue, indicating a concentrated revenue base within a few high-value services.

    Revenue concentration is pronounced around three services: 92014 brought in $120.2K (18.5% of Medicare revenue), 66984 contributed $109.6K (16.9%), and 65820 accounted for $57.5K (8.9%). Together these three codes represent the precomputed 44.3% share of total Medicare revenue, signaling that comprehensive exams and cataract/glaucoma procedures are the primary revenue drivers.

    The code mix indicates a blended clinical/surgical ophthalmology practice: high-volume office exams such as 92014 (1.5K claims) sit alongside significant cataract surgery billing (66984 at 301 claims and 66982) and glaucoma procedures (65820 and 65855). This combination of E/M, diagnostic testing, and operative codes suggests the provider performs both clinic-based care and operative ophthalmic procedures rather than purely refractive or optical services.

    92014 is an outlier nationally for comprehensive established exams — it ranks #616 of 35415 providers nationally (98th percentile; extreme outlier, far above typical national volume for this code) — indicating unusually high throughput of comprehensive established-patient visits compared with peers. Several diagnostic and imaging services also show elevated national standing (for example, 92083, 92250, and 92133 are reported as notably above typical or extreme outliers), which reinforces that clinical volume is concentrated in diagnostic and exam services as well as procedures.

    Cataract surgery volumes are present but comparatively ordinary: 66984 ranks #4023 of 15965 providers nationally (75th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume for this code) and 66982 ranks #614 of 4580 (86th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume). In contrast, the glaucoma-related code 65820 ranks #60 of 1249 (95th percentile; notably above typical national volume for this code), suggesting a higher-than-typical rate of that specific limbal incision procedure relative to peers.

    The provider reports substantial use of diagnostic imaging and testing tied to ophthalmic management: 92134 (637 claims, $17.8K revenue), 92136 (462 claims, $13.4K), 92133 (513 claims, $12.3K), and 92250 (708 claims, $17.7K revenue) are all in the profile, with several codes flagged at high national percentiles. This pattern implies investment in in-office diagnostics and monitoring that complement the procedural work and support longitudinal management of retinal, optic nerve, and visual-field conditions.

    Intensity of new and complex outpatient evaluation is notable: 99204 appears with 202 claims and $22.6K revenue and ranks #4657 of 227068 providers nationally (98th percentile; notably above typical national volume for this code), while higher-level established E/M codes 99214 and 99213 also contribute materially. Those E/M signals, together with the surgical codes, are consistent with a practice that manages both initial, moderate-complexity consultations and follow-up medical care in addition to performing surgery.

    The provider has an established Medicare presence with an NPI enumerated on 2008-11-02 (~18 years ago), indicating long tenure in the market. Combined with the Medicare-only billing profile and concentrated code mix, this suggests operational stability focused on Medicare beneficiaries and a business model centered on exam-driven throughput plus ophthalmic procedures.
