    Key Findings

    This provider is effectively a Medicare-only biller: lifetime Medicare revenue is listed at $2M while there is no Medicaid billing on file, indicating a single-payer footprint in the available data rather than a mixed Medicare/Medicaid practice profile. Analysts should treat Medicaid as absent for competitive or access analyses since no in-state Medicaid claims are reported.

    Revenue concentration is high among a few drug administration codes: the precomputed note says the top three Medicare codes by revenue account for 49.7% of total Medicare revenue, signaling that nearly half of the provider’s Medicare income is driven by a small set of high-revenue services tied to biologic/infusible drugs. This concentration suggests the practice’s economics are strongly linked to infusion and injectable specialty therapies.

    The provider’s top revenue code is J0129 (abatacept) at $522.8K, representing 25.6% of Medicare revenue; J1745 (infliximab) and J0717 (certolizumab pegol) follow with $251K and $243.2K respectively. Together these drug administration codes dominate the revenue mix and indicate the practice operates substantial in-office infusion or physician-supervised injectable services consistent with rheumatology specialty care.

    Competitive standing on key biologic codes is mixed. J0129 ranks #235 of 1221 providers nationally (81st percentile), a broadly typical volume but above median; J1745 ranks #92 of 1352 providers (93rd percentile), indicating this provider is a high-volume user of infliximab relative to peers; J0717 ranks #315 of 848 (63rd percentile), a more modest national position. Overall, the provider is a meaningful regional participant for certain biologics, particularly infliximab.

    E/M visit volumes point to an unusual clinical pattern: 99214 is reported at 1.2K claims with $99.1K revenue and ranks in the 99th percentile as an "extreme outlier, far above typical national volume for this code," while 99213 also sits in very high percentiles. This suggests a heavy reliance on established outpatient visits in addition to infusion services, which may reflect a high patient panel, frequent follow-up cadence, or clinic workflow that documents higher-level E/M activity.

    Procedure mix confirms an infusion- and clinic-forward practice model: high-revenue HCPCS chemotherapy/infusion administration codes such as 96413 and 96365, plus multiple biologic J-codes (J0897, J1602, J3111, J9312), appear in the top services list. Lab and procedure codes (86235 ENA panel, 77080 DXA) are present but contribute small shares, reinforcing that the core business is supervised injectable/infusible specialty therapy rather than diagnostic testing.

    Tenure data shows this NPI was enumerated around 2007-05-31 (~19 years ago), indicating long-standing Medicare participation. That tenure supports interpretation of billing patterns as established practice behavior rather than a short-term anomaly.

    Several ancillary services show consistently above-typical national volumes: lab orders and basic phlebotomy (85025, 36415), vitamin D testing (82306), and ESR (85651) rank in high percentiles, reflecting routine rheumatology monitoring tied to ongoing biologic therapy. These patterns are consistent with chronic disease management workflows associated with immunomodulatory treatments.
