    Key Findings

    CHILDREN'S FRIEND AND SERVICE is effectively a single-payer provider: there is no Medicare billing on file while total Medicaid revenue is $18.7M. This profile indicates the organization’s operations and reimbursement activity are concentrated entirely in the Medicaid program. The absence of Medicare billing suggests the provider’s services and client population are focused on children and Medicaid-covered community programs rather than fee-for-service Medicare populations.

    Revenue is highly concentrated in a few Medicaid codes: the precomputed top three Medicaid codes account for 66.6% of the provider’s total Medicaid revenue. The largest single driver is H2022 with $8.5M (45.1% of Medicaid revenue), followed by 99600 with $2.4M (12.6%) and T1024 with $1.7M (8.8%). This concentration signals that a small number of community- and home-based service lines underpin most of the organization’s Medicaid income.

    The code mix points to a community-based, multidisciplinary service model focused on wrap-around, home-visit and coordinated specialty-team care. H2022 (Community-based wrap-around services), 99600 (home visit), and T1024 (integrated specialty team encounters) together imply the provider delivers intensive, coordinated, in-community supports for children with complex needs. Additional codes such as T1027 (family training), 97150 (group therapeutic procedures), and T1016 (case management) further indicate a balanced mix of clinical, educational, and care-management activities rather than episodic acute care.

    CHILDREN'S FRIEND AND SERVICE holds dominant or unique positions on several high-revenue Medicaid codes in-state. H2022 ranks #1 of 1 providers in-state (0th percentile; no state peer volume comparison available), making the organization the sole in-state reporter for that code and the source of the program’s reported Medicaid revenue. 99600 ranks #1 of 11 providers in-state (100th percentile; notably above typical state volume for this code), indicating a state-leading role in home-visit services.

    Several other high-volume service lines show strong but more typical statewide participation, consistent with a mature community provider. T1024 ranks #15 of 91 providers in-state (84th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume) and T1027 ranks #9 of 88 providers in-state (91th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume), while 97150 (18.4K claims) ranks #5 of 48 providers in-state (91th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume) and T1016 (25K claims) ranks #22 of 180 providers in-state (88th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume). These placements suggest the provider delivers large absolute volumes in these services but within expected state peer ranges.

    There are identifiable statistical outliers in the provider’s code mix beyond the revenue concentration. In addition to 99600 being described as "notably above typical state volume," T5999 (Supply, not otherwise specified) ranks #1 of 9 providers in-state (100th percentile; notably above typical state volume) despite contributing only $27.6K in revenue, indicating selective high relative activity on a small supply code. These flagged labels point to areas where this provider’s utilization departs from typical state patterns and may reflect program-specific billing practices or service emphasis.

    The provider’s claim volumes reflect sustained operational scale in community service delivery: examples include 25K claims for T1016, 18.4K claims for 97150, 13.9K claims for T1024, and 12.8K claims for T1027. High claim counts alongside per-claim payment levels (e.g., $1840 avg paid/claim for H2022, $256 for 99600, $119 for T1024) show a mix of high-acuity per-diem services and high-frequency lower-unit services, consistent with ongoing community-based care models. Analysts should view both the claim volume and per-claim payment mix when assessing operational capacity and resource intensity.

    The organization has an established presence in the market, with its NPI enumerated 2006-12-06 (~20 years ago). This tenure, combined with leadership positions on key Medicaid codes, suggests long-standing contracts or program relationships in the state Medicaid ecosystem rather than a recent entrant or transient operation.
