    Key Findings

    SCOTT GAUTHREAUX operates as a retina-focused ophthalmology practice with the bulk of clinical activity centered on intravitreal anti-VEGF therapy and high-volume retinal imaging. The top injectable drugs billed are J0178 (1.1K claims, $677 avg paid/claim, $710.9K revenue), J2777 (5.3K claims, $27 avg paid/claim, $142.6K revenue) and J2778 (791 claims, $177 avg paid/claim, $140K revenue), and the practice also reports substantial use of office-based injection code 67028 (1K claims, $87 avg paid/claim, $88.5K revenue) and retinal imaging 92134 (2.3K claims, $29 avg paid/claim, $68K revenue).

    Revenue is highly concentrated in a handful of drug codes: the precomputed top 3 Medicare codes account for 71.6% of the provider’s total Medicare revenue, with J0178 alone representing 51.2% of Medicare revenue ($710.9K). This concentration indicates financial dependence on a small set of high-cost injectable therapies.

    This provider is effectively single-payer on file: lifetime Medicare revenue totals $1.4M while there is no Medicaid billing on record. The absence of Medicaid revenue suggests limited exposure to Medicaid-managed populations and that payer strategy or reimbursement risk is concentrated in Medicare.

    Injection volumes for the major retinal drugs are broadly in the typical national range rather than dominant: J0178 ranks #1238 of 3204 providers nationally (61th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume for this code), J2777 ranks #1494 of 2039 (27th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume for this code), and J2778 ranks #518 of 1208 (57th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume for this code). These ranks imply the provider is a modest national participant in anti-VEGF administration rather than a top-volume outlier for those specific drugs.

    In contrast to injection ranks, clinical office workup and imaging are exceptional: 92134 appears as an extreme outlier with 2.3K claims ($29 avg paid/claim, $68K revenue) and ranks #753 of 26868 providers nationally (97th percentile; extreme outlier, far above typical national volume), while 92014 shows notably above-typical volume with 1.3K claims ($84 avg paid/claim, $111.6K revenue) and ranks #844 of 35415 (98th percentile; notably above typical national volume). High exam and OCT volumes point to a practice workflow that pairs frequent monitoring with treatment, consistent with retina specialty management of chronic macular disease.

    The practice performs some in-office procedural work and occasional surgical retinal procedures: 67028 (injections into the vitreous) accounts for $88.5K (6.4% of Medicare revenue) and ranks #1364 of 4255 (68th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume for this code), while vitrectomy-related codes 67042, 67041, and 67036 appear at much lower claim counts and revenues. This pattern suggests predominantly clinic-based medical retina care with intermittent surgical referrals or limited surgical caseload.

    Billing patterns show frequent small-value supply and drug claims alongside high-value injectables: J2403 is billed 20K times ($1 avg paid/claim, $20K revenue) and ranks #65 of 76 providers nationally (15th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume for this code), and there are entries for J7999 (257 claims, $67 avg paid/claim, $17.2K revenue) and J3301 (96 claims, $1 avg paid/claim, $96 revenue). The mix indicates routine billing for topical agents and compounded preparations in addition to the core anti-VEGF treatments.

    The provider has long tenure in Medicare billing, with an NPI enumeration date of 2006-04-19 (~20 years ago), which combined with the concentrated anti-VEGF revenue stream and very high imaging/exam volumes, points to an established retina practice model focused on chronic disease management within the Medicare population. This operational profile suggests stable, outpatient-driven revenue generation with limited Medicaid participation.
