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

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

Key Findings

This provider is effectively single-payer: LIFELINE CONNECTIONS reports no Medicare revenue on file and $42.2M in Medicaid revenue, so its entire billed footprint in the available data is driven by Medicaid. Analysts should treat Medicaid as the operational ledger when evaluating volume, utilization patterns, and financial exposure.

Revenue is concentrated in a small set of service lines: the top three Medicaid codes H0018 ($7.5M, 17.9%), H0011 ($6.7M, 16.1%), and S9485 ($5.3M, 12.7%) together account for 46.7% of this provider's total Medicaid revenue. This concentration shows a substantial share of revenue tied to residential and crisis-intervention services rather than distributed outpatient E&M billing.

The code mix points to a core business model centered on residential and acute addiction care: H0018 (short-term residential, per diem), H0011 (acute detoxification, inpatient), and S9485 (crisis intervention, per diem) are the top revenue drivers, indicating that the organization operates significant non-hospital residential treatment and crisis mental health capacity. These per-diem and inpatient-oriented codes suggest bed-based and crisis-response operations rather than a pure outpatient clinic.

While the top per-diem codes drive revenue, the provider also bills extensively for psychotherapy and behavioral health supports: 90837 generated $3M (7.3% of Medicaid revenue) and codes for counseling, case management, supported housing, and peer services appear throughout the top claims (for example H0004, T1017, H0043, H0038). This mix signals a continuum of care strategy that pairs higher-revenue residential days with repeated outpatient and support interventions.

Competitive standing by code is mixed: H0018 ranks #6 of 59 providers in-state (91th percentile), H0011 ranks #6 of 18 providers in-state (71th percentile), and S9485 ranks #6 of 19 providers in-state (72th percentile) — each labeled "typical, unremarkable volume" in the data — meaning LIFELINE CONNECTIONS is an important but not dominant statewide provider in those core residential and detox lines. Analysts should interpret these ranks as participation at scale rather than market leadership for the primary revenue drivers.

There are clear statistical outliers in testing and assessment volume: H0003 (laboratory analysis for alcohol/drugs) shows 40.2K claims and $883.9K revenue and is ranked #1 of 32 providers in-state (100th percentile; extreme outlier). In addition, several assessment/behavioral measurement codes (96165, 96153, 96164) appear at very high percentiles (for example 96153 ranks #6 of 208 providers in-state, 98th percentile; 96165 ranks 96th percentile), indicating unusually high throughput of standardized assessments and group-based behavioral services relative to peers.

Several high-claim, low-unit-rate services point to a high-volume operational model for supportive and waiver services: T2025 (Waiver services) recorded 16.5K claims and $2.6M revenue, H2036 (per diem AOD program) has 26.3K claims at $499.8K, and T1017 (targeted case management) shows 5.9K claims. The presence of many claims with modest avg paid/claim suggests recurring, shorter-duration units of service and a reliance on volume to generate a portion of total revenue.

The practice has long tenure in the NPI registry — enumerated 2007-04-24 (~19 years ago) — which, combined with its Medicaid-focused revenue and deep footprint across residential, detox, crisis, psychotherapy, assessment, and support codes, indicates an established role in Washington state's behavioral health and substance use treatment ecosystem. This longevity supports expectations of operational stability and embedded referral pathways within Medicaid networks.
