    Key Findings

    This provider is a Nuclear Medicine Physician whose Medicare billing is overwhelmingly for the therapeutic radiopharmaceutical A9606 (Radium ra-223 dichloride). A9606 accounts for 9.1K claims at $132 avg paid/claim, producing $1.2M in Medicare revenue and representing 99.4% of this provider's Medicare revenue, which indicates a highly specialized, therapy-focused practice rather than a broad imaging portfolio.

    A second, much smaller revenue stream is 79101, billed for 84 claims at $87 avg paid/claim and generating $7.3K (0.6% of Medicare revenue). The 79101 procedure description (injection of a radiopharmaceutical into the venous bloodstream to treat a condition) suggests these are related therapeutic or adjunctive administrations rather than unrelated outpatient services.

    Revenue concentration is extreme: the precomputed top-3 Medicare codes account for 100.0% of the provider's Medicare revenue, reflecting near-total dependence on a very small set of radiopharmaceutical therapies. That level of concentration implies that changes to utilization patterns or reimbursement for those specific codes would materially affect overall Medicare revenue for this NPI.

    Payer mix is effectively single-payer Medicare: lifetime Medicare revenue is $1.2M while there is no Medicaid billing on file, so this provider does not appear to be participating in Medicaid billing or serving a Medicaid-billed population under this NPI. The absence of Medicaid-derived revenue reduces payer diversification and could influence contracting or referral patterns for Medicaid populations.

    Competitive standing on A9606 is notable within a small national cohort: the provider ranks #1 of 6 providers nationally and is at the 100th percentile for this code, though the available label describes the volume as "typical, unremarkable." This indicates the provider is the top biller among a limited peer set for A9606 but that the absolute volume for the code is not characterized as unusually high in the dataset. For 79101, the provider ranks #23 of 302 (92th percentile), which is relatively high among a broader peer group but still contributes only 0.6% of the provider's Medicare revenue.

    The NPI was enumerated on 2010-04-07 (~16 years ago), indicating an established billing presence over a multi-year period. That tenure supports the interpretation that the current revenue mix is a sustained, practice-level pattern rather than a very recent shift.

    Operationally, the per-claim payment levels ($132 avg for A9606 and $87 avg for 79101) combined with 9.1K A9606 claims suggest the practice is structured around repeated administration of a paid radiotherapeutic product, with revenue driven by per-dose reimbursements. The predominance of a single paid product implies operational focus on procurement, handling, and scheduling specific to that therapeutic.

    From a business sensitivity standpoint, this NPI’s financial profile is highly exposed to changes affecting A9606 (reimbursement policy, supply chain, or clinical guideline shifts), and the lack of Medicaid billing further concentrates revenue risk within Medicare. Analysts should treat the provider as a niche therapeutic administrator with limited diversification across payers and procedures.
