    Lifetime revenue by payer source (source: CMS Medicare & Medicaid claims data)

    Payer SourceTotal Paid
    Medicaid$265.9M
    Medicare$38.5M

    Key Findings

    Provider is heavily Medicaid‑weighted: lifetime Medicare revenue is $38.5M compared with $265.9M in Medicaid, indicating the entity operates with a dominant Medicaid revenue base rather than a balanced payer mix. This scale difference suggests strategic dependence on Medicaid test volumes and reimbursement patterns for overall revenue performance.

    Medicaid revenue is highly concentrated in molecular and NAAT infectious‑disease testing: the top three Medicaid codes (U0003, 87798, 87591) account for 55.1% of Medicaid revenue, with U0003 alone representing $79.4M (35.0%). That concentration—driven by SARS‑CoV‑2 and other amplified‑probe assays—identifies molecular infectious testing as the primary Medicaid service line.

    Medicare revenue shows a narrower but significant concentration in routine clinical laboratory services: the top three Medicare codes account for 31.1% of Medicare revenue, led by 80053 ($2.9M, 11.0%), 36415 ($2.7M, 10.5%), and 80061 ($2.5M, 9.6%). Those codes (comprehensive metabolic panel, specimen collection, and lipid panel) point to high-volume outpatient chemistry and specimen‑processing activity in the Medicare population.

    The overall code mix indicates a large centralized reference laboratory operation handling both routine monitoring tests and high-throughput molecular panels. High volumes appear across routine chemistry/hematology/endocrine codes (e.g., 80053, 85025, 83036, 84443) alongside massive NAAT and multiplex testing (e.g., U0003, 87798, 87801), consistent with a lab that processes community-collected specimens at scale.

    National competitive standing for Medicare shows dominant volume positions on many routine tests: several Medicare codes are described as “extreme outlier” and rank in the 100th percentile nationally (for example, 80053 ranks #20 of 26416 providers nationally (100th percentile; extreme outlier) and 85025 ranks #20 of 32833 providers nationally (100th percentile; extreme outlier)). These placements indicate the provider is a top national volume performer for common diagnostic panels and routine lab work.

    State-level competitive standing in Arizona is strongly dominant for molecular and infectious testing: U0003 ranks #1 of 108 providers in-state (100th percentile; extreme outlier), and multiple NAAT codes such as 87798, 87591, 87491, and 87801 similarly rank #1 in-state (100th percentile; extreme outlier). Those rankings portray the provider as the leading in-state processor for SARS‑CoV‑2 and other high-throughput NAAT testing.

    The provider’s billing profile includes multiple codes labeled as statistical outliers or notably above typical volumes across both payers, for example 87999 (nationally ranks #2 of 16; 93th percentile; notably above typical national volume) and many 100th percentile listings. This pattern of repeated “extreme outlier” and “notably above typical” labels underscores unusually large scale versus peers and implies sensitivity to any test-specific reimbursement or utilization policy changes.

    NPI tenure confirms an established presence: the NPI was enumerated on 2005-11-15 (~21 years ago), indicating long operational history. Combined with the heavy Medicaid revenue and the concentrated code mix, the tenure supports interpretation of a mature reference‑lab business that has scaled molecular infectious testing and routine laboratory services over many years.
