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

Why is the Medicaid comparison limited to West Virginia 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. West Virginia (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.

How current is this data?

The Medicare and Medicaid tables are both single current snapshots, not refreshed on a recurring schedule yet.

Key Findings

This provider's lifetime Medicare revenue is $506.4K and there is no Medicaid billing on file, so the practice is effectively single‑payer (Medicare) in the available administrative data. The absence of any Medicaid claims suggests limited engagement with that payer population or billing pathway in this dataset.

Revenue is highly concentrated in a small number of ophthalmology procedures: the precomputed top 3 Medicare codes account for 57.0% of this provider's total Medicare revenue, led by 66984 ($194K, 38.3%), then 66821 ($50.6K, 10.0%), and 99204 ($44.2K, 8.7%). This concentration indicates that a handful of high‑value surgical and evaluation codes drive the majority of billed Medicare dollars.

The code mix indicates a cataract‑focused surgical practice with integrated perioperative services: 66984 and 66982 are primary cataract extraction/IOL insertion codes and 66821 (posterior capsulotomy) is the second‑largest revenue contributor. High volume on biometry 92136 (583 claims, $16.3K; ranks in the 95th percentile) supports an in‑office workflow that evaluates and plans intraocular lens power for cataract surgery patients.

99204 is an unusual statistical outlier in this provider's Medicare billing: 417 claims and $44.2K revenue on 99204 places the provider at rank #378 of 227068 providers nationally (100th percentile; extreme outlier). This suggests an unusually large number of new, moderate‑complexity office visits relative to peers, which may reflect active new patient intake, referral influx, or local demand for specialist consultations.

Competitive standing on core surgical codes is mixed: 66984 ranks #3045 of 15965 providers nationally (81th percentile), indicating above‑median but not dominant cataract surgery volume, while 66821 ranks #771 of 10087 (92th percentile), signaling comparatively stronger placement on posterior capsulotomy procedures. Other procedure-level signals such as 66982 (rank #614 of 4580, 86th percentile) and 92136 (95th percentile) further show the provider as a notable regional performer on surgical and preoperative testing codes rather than a national leader.

Beyond cataract work, the provider bills a range of oculoplastic and ancillary ophthalmic procedures at smaller scale: 67904 ($17.4K, 3.4%), 15823 ($12.5K, 2.5%), and 67921 ($8.5K, 1.7%) together represent nontrivial but secondary revenue streams. These codes indicate availability of eyelid and periocular surgical services that supplement the core cataract/service line rather than dominate it.

The provider has an established National Provider Identifier tenure, enumerated 2006-03-14 (~20 years ago), which aligns with a mature practice profile that combines surgical throughput and sustained office visit volume. This length of enrollment supports the interpretation that observed billing patterns reflect ongoing service lines rather than a transient or newly established operation.
