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 South Dakota for Medicaid) — rank 1 means the highest claims volume for that code.

Why is the Medicaid comparison limited to South Dakota 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. South Dakota (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

KENDRA WATSON’s Medicare billing profile is heavily Mohs‑surgery driven: CPT 17311 and 17312 together generate $127.3K and $68.1K respectively and, along with pathology code 88305, comprise the top revenue drivers. The report notes that the top 3 Medicare codes by revenue account for 60.4% of this provider’s total Medicare revenue, which aligns the practice squarely around excision (Mohs) plus associated histopathology services.

Revenue concentration is material: lifetime Medicare revenue is $374.6K and the top three codes alone represent 60.4% of that sum, indicating a narrow revenue base focused on surgical skin cancer management and pathology. This concentration suggests financial sensitivity to volume changes in Mohs procedures or pathology billing rather than a highly diversified case mix.

This provider is effectively single‑payer from the claims dataset: there is no Medicaid billing on file, so Medicare represents the dominant (and only reported) public payer stream. The absence of Medicaid activity means comparisons and network risk analyses should treat this entity as Medicare‑centric when modeling payer mix or access for low‑income populations.

Competitive standing for Mohs: 17311 (rank #1319 of 2969, 55th percentile) is at a typical, unremarkable volume for this code, while 17312 (rank #785 of 2770, 72th percentile) is above median but still characterized as typical, unremarkable volume. In plain terms, the provider performs Mohs at a modest-to-above‑average level nationally but does not appear as a dominant national outlier in Mohs volume.

Pathology and evaluation services show comparatively stronger placement: 88305 ranks #4281 of 14580 (71th percentile) and is described as typical, unremarkable volume, while 99213 ranks #33376 of 457151 (93th percentile) and is likewise labeled typical, unremarkable volume. The high percentile for 99213 indicates relatively robust outpatient visit activity versus national peers, suggesting steady office throughput that supports the surgical practice.

The procedure mix beyond Mohs underscores an operative dermatology practice with lesion destruction and repair capability: codes such as 17110 ($11.6K revenue), 12051 ($7.4K revenue, rank #93 of 950 at the 90th percentile), and 12032 ($7.5K revenue) indicate frequent benign lesion destruction and intermediate repair work. The 90th‑percentile standing on 12051 points to relatively strong facial repair volume compared with peers, reinforcing a clinical footprint that includes cosmetic/reconstructive repair in addition to oncologic excision.

Provider tenure is stable: the NPI was enumerated on 2013-04-09 (~13 years ago), indicating an established billing history with Medicare that spans more than a decade. That tenure, paired with lifetime Medicare receipts of $374.6K, supports the view of a steady, small-to-midsize dermatologic surgical practice rather than a recent entrant or high-growth aggregator.

There are some procedure areas where this provider is under‑indexed compared with peers: 17313 (rank #1819 of 2300, 20th percentile) and several repair codes such as 13132 (17th percentile) and 12042 (14th percentile) are at lower relative volumes and are still described as typical, unremarkable volume for those codes. These lower percentiles suggest selective service focus or referral patterns that limit certain complex reconstructions or specific Mohs variants, which may be relevant when evaluating partnership or network coverage gaps.
