    Key Findings

    Provider tenure and payer mix: RICHARD KIM has an NPI enumerated on 2006-02-10 (~20 years ago) and reports Total Medicare revenue of $3.6M with no Medicaid billing on file. The absence of Medicaid activity makes this effectively a single-payer (Medicare) revenue profile, concentrating payment exposure to the Medicare population.

    Revenue concentration is high and focused in a few biologic drug codes: the precomputed top three Medicare codes (J0129, J0717, J1602) account for 50.8% of this provider’s total Medicare revenue. Individually those top three are J0129 $674K (18.9%), J0717 $579.2K (16.2%), and J1602 $563.5K (15.8%), indicating a large share of revenue is driven by a small set of injectable biologics.

    Business and service-line implication: the code mix is dominated by biologic J‑codes (for example J0129, J0717, J1602, J9312, J1745, J3262), which is consistent with an in‑office infusion/administration model treating autoimmune and related conditions. Evaluation-and-management CPTs generate a comparatively small share of revenue (for example 99214 $82.8K, 2.3%), which suggests the practice’s economics rely more on drug administration and infusion services than on routine office visits.

    Infusion and chemotherapy administration activity is an important operational feature: the provider reports 96413 $100K (2.8%) and 96401 $47.4K (1.3%), with 96413 characterized as an "extreme outlier, far above typical national volume" (99th percentile) and 96401 as "notably above typical national volume" (98th percentile). High-volume add-on and infusion-continuation codes such as 96415 $7.9K (0.2%) also rank in the 98th percentile, reinforcing that extended or repeated infusion services are a material part of the practice.

    Competitive standing by drug: for some high-revenue J‑codes this provider ranks well above peers nationally — J1602 ranks #37 of 1041 providers (97th percentile; noted as "notably above typical national volume") and J1745 ranks #61 of 1352 providers (96th percentile; "notably above typical national volume"). These rankings indicate the provider is a major national participant for specific infusion drugs rather than a marginal operator for those items.

    At the same time, several biologic J‑codes appear at high percentiles but are labeled "typical, unremarkable volume," for example J0129 ranks #129 of 1221 (90th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume) and J0717 ranks #69 of 848 (92th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume). That combination suggests the provider’s volumes are substantial in raw terms, yet within the expected distribution for many commonly administered biologics.

    Practice risk and strategic notes: with Total Medicare revenue of $3.6M and no reported Medicaid billing, the practice is exposed to Medicare policy and reimbursement changes that affect in‑office drug administration. Given that a narrow set of high-cost injectable drugs drive a majority of revenue (top three codes account for 50.8%), any shifts in coverage, reimbursement, or drug mix could materially affect revenue.

    Operational profile supported by mid/low E/M and ancillary services: beyond biologics and infusion codes, the practice bills routine diagnostics and support items (examples include 85025 $7K, 77080 $4.4K and DXA codes), indicating a full-service outpatient infusion clinic that also performs relevant monitoring and lab work to support biologic therapy management.
