    Key Findings

    Provider profile and tenure: JOHN KERRISON is an Ophthalmology Physician enumerated at NPI on 2006-08-20 (~20 years ago), indicating long-standing Medicare enrollment and an established practice footprint in CHARLESTON, SC. The longevity supports continuity in billing patterns observed in the Medicare data set.

    Payer mix and scale: This provider is effectively single-payer in the available data — total Medicare revenue is $5M and there is no Medicaid billing on file. The absence of Medicaid activity means the payer mix is heavily concentrated on Medicare, which has implications for network negotiations and population served.

    Revenue concentration: The practice’s Medicare revenue is highly concentrated in a small number of drug/injection codes; the precomputed top 3 Medicare codes by revenue account for 73.5% of total Medicare revenue. The largest single driver is J0178 with $3M (60.6% of Medicare revenue), indicating dependence on anti-VEGF/aflibercept injections for most of the practice’s revenue.

    Service-line implication — retina/intravitreal focus: The code mix (high volumes of J0178, Q5128, J3490 and procedure 67028) points to a retina-focused practice that delivers large volumes of intravitreal injections and related office-based retinal procedures. High utilization of retinal imaging (92134) and intermediate/comprehensive established eye exam codes (92012, 92014) further supports a workflow centered on chronic retinal disease management and frequent follow-up.

    Competitive standing on top drug: J0178 (Injection, aflibercept) is a clear national outlier for this provider, with $3M revenue, 4.4K claims and ranking #47 of 3204 providers nationally (99th percentile; extreme outlier). This placement indicates the provider is a major national-level user of aflibercept relative to peers, not a modest participant.

    Additional notable volumes and outliers: The provider also reports 3.8K claims for 92134 ($107.1K, 2.2% of Medicare revenue) and 1.3K claims for 92012 ($83.6K, 1.7% of Medicare revenue), both ranked in the 99th percentile and labeled as extreme outliers. These exceptionally high volumes of diagnostic imaging and established-patient intermediate exams are consistent with a high-throughput retina/injection clinic model.

    Surgical and other services are present but limited: Surgical retina codes such as 67042 ($19.4K), 67108 ($17.1K) and several additional vitreoretinal procedure codes appear at much lower volumes, suggesting the practice is more focused on medical retina and office-based procedures than high-volume retinal surgery. The distribution implies injections and imaging drive the business while surgeries are a smaller supplemental revenue stream.

    Risk and contracting considerations: With $5M in Medicare revenue and no Medicaid billing, revenue risk is concentrated in a few high-volume injectable drug codes (top three = 73.5%) and in a single payer. Contracting teams should account for this concentration when assessing reimbursement sensitivity to drug pricing, utilization management, and Medicare policy changes that would disproportionately affect this provider.
