    Key Findings

    This provider’s billing footprint is effectively single‑payer: Total Medicare revenue is $1.2M and there is no Medicaid billing on file. The NPI was enumerated on 2007-06-01 (~19 years ago), indicating a long-tenured presence in COEUR D ALENE, ID.

    Revenue is highly concentrated in a few drug and procedural codes: the precomputed top 3 Medicare codes account for 80.3% of the provider’s Medicare revenue, driven by J0178 ($690K, 56.1%), J2777 ($217.5K, 17.7%), and 66984 ($80.5K, 6.5%). This concentration signals that a small set of services — primarily high-cost intravitreal agents and a cataract-related procedure — drive the practice’s financials.

    Clinical mix points to a retina/injection‑focused ophthalmology practice: large claim volumes for intravitreal drug codes (J0178 with 1K claims and J2777 with 7.5K claims) alongside 67028 (829 claims, $68K, 5.5%) indicate routine administration of intravitreal injections and newer biologic agents. The presence of substantial drug revenue versus E/M and diagnostic codes suggests in-office drug administration is a core service line.

    Competitive standing for the top drug codes is modest nationally: J0178 ranks #1286 of 3204 providers (60th percentile) and J2777 ranks #1223 of 2039 providers (40th percentile), both labeled typical or unremarkable volumes. The cataract insertion code 66984 ranks #5166 of 15965 (68th percentile), implying the provider is a modest but not dominant participant in cataract surgery at a national level.

    Diagnostic imaging and established‑patient follow‑up are relatively prominent compared with peers: 92134 shows 1.2K claims and $32.4K revenue and ranks #1947 of 26868 (93rd percentile), while 92014 has 648 claims and $49.2K revenue and ranks #3755 of 35415 (89th percentile). These high percentiles for imaging and E/M for established patients indicate above‑typical use of retinal OCT and follow‑up visits within the Medicare population.

    Surgical and minor procedure activity exists but at modest scale: 66984 (214 claims, $80.5K, 6.5%) and 66821 (64 claims, $16.6K, 1.3%) confirm cataract and YAG capsulotomy services are offered, but volumes are much smaller than the injection/drug revenue stream. This suggests the practice performs some surgical work but is not primarily a high‑volume surgical center.

    The absence of Medicaid billing ("none below") means the practice derives its entire reported public‑payer revenue from Medicare ($1.2M), concentrating reimbursement exposure to Medicare fee schedules and beneficiary demographics. Analysts should treat this profile as Medicare‑dependent when modeling payer mix or negotiating network arrangements.

    Operational stability is supported by long tenure and concentrated service lines: enumerated since 2007-06-01 (~19 years ago) with a consistent pattern of high drug administration (J0178, J2777) and imaging (92134). The combination of long tenure and a focused procedure/drug mix suggests an established clinical workflow centered on intravitreal therapy and retina management.
