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

Why is the Medicaid comparison limited to Tennessee 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. Tennessee (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

RICHARD SIEVERS is a long-tenured ophthalmology physician, with an NPI enumerated on 2005-06-17 (approximately 21 years ago), indicating sustained participation in Medicare billing and likely an established clinical practice in MEMPHIS, TN. The longevity supports continuity of care and experience in delivering ophthalmic services to the Medicare population.

This provider’s billed Medicare revenue totals $2.5M with no Medicaid billing on file, making his practice effectively single-payer (Medicare) in the available claims data. The absence of Medicaid activity on file suggests either no Medicaid panel, subcontracting arrangements, or billing under a different NPI/group for non-Medicare payers; analysts should treat this profile as Medicare-dominant.

Revenue concentration is heavily weighted toward intravitreal anti-VEGF therapy: the top 3 Medicare codes by revenue account for 83.6% of the provider’s total Medicare revenue, signaling that a small set of injection/drug administration codes are the primary business drivers for this practice. This concentration implies the operation is primarily procedural and treatment-focused around retinal injections rather than general ophthalmic office visits or diverse surgical procedures.

J0178 (aflibercept) is the single largest revenue generator at $1.3M (51.2% of Medicare revenue), with 1.8K claims and an average paid/claim of $692; this shows the provider treats a substantial volume of aflibercept injections. Nationally this provider ranks #618 of 3204 (81st percentile) for J0178, which the data describe as typical/unremarkable volume — i.e., solid utilization but not an extreme outlier compared with peers.

J2777 (faricimab) is the second top driver with $631.6K (25.6% of Medicare revenue) across 21.8K claims and an average paid/claim of $29; the provider ranks #471 of 2039 nationally (77th percentile) and is likewise characterized as typical/unremarkable volume. Together with J0178, the prominence of these high-cost and high-volume intravitreal drug codes confirms a service-line focus on retinal pharmacologic therapy.

67028 (intravitreal injection procedure) contributes $168.1K (6.8% of Medicare revenue) with 2.1K claims and a paid/claim of $81, ranking #365 of 4255 (91st percentile) and labeled as typical/unremarkable volume. The combination of high procedure counts for 67028 and high drug revenue reflects a practice workflow centered on frequent, procedure-driven injection visits rather than mostly diagnostic or infrequent surgical cases.

Several diagnostic eye exam and imaging codes appear but represent much smaller shares of revenue: 92014 accounts for $106.8K (4.3% of Medicare revenue) and ranks in the 97th percentile nationally as notably above typical national volume, while 92134 (retinal imaging) is an extreme outlier at 3.4% of revenue with a 99th percentile ranking. These patterns suggest the provider maintains substantial diagnostic imaging capacity and a high follow-up/monitoring volume that complements the injection-focused practice.

Other injectable agents and related procedures (Q5128, J9035, 92235, and select laser codes) appear at much lower revenue shares but show mixed national standings — for example, Q5128 is mid-range at the 44th percentile, while J9035 (bevacizumab) is at the 94th percentile despite representing only 1.7% of revenue. This indicates the provider uses a mix of biologic agents with relative specialization in aflibercept and faricimab, but still occasionally uses alternative drugs and ancillary procedures.
