    Key Findings

    This provider is effectively single‑payer in the available claims data: there is no Medicare billing on file while Medicaid revenue totals $56.6M, indicating that Medicaid drives the entirety of reported public-payer receipts for this NPI. The absence of Medicare activity concentrates revenue and payer risk on Medicaid payment policy and utilization patterns in the state.

    Revenue concentration is high across a small set of Medicaid codes: the top three Medicaid codes (99469, 99214, 99472) together account for 41.2% of the provider's total Medicaid revenue. Individually those codes generate $8.8M (99469, 16.3%), $8M (99214, 14.8%), and $5.5M (99472, 10.2%), showing a reliance on a few high‑value service lines for a large share of receipts.

    Clinical mix is heavily skewed toward neonatal and infant critical care alongside routine outpatient evaluation and management. Codes 99469 and 99472 (neonatal critical care/subsequent inpatient care of critically ill infants) are top revenue drivers and 99479/99480 (recovering low birth weight infant care) also appear in the top list, which together indicate substantive NICU and infant follow‑up capacity rather than only adult primary care services.

    At the same time, this NPI reports extremely large outpatient E/M volumes: 99214 appears with 103.9K claims and $8M revenue and is labeled an extreme outlier statewide (rank #6 of 2483, 100th percentile), while 99213 (77.1K claims, $3.3M) is also an extreme outlier (rank #18 of 2766, 99th percentile). These figures point to a significant primary care or outpatient clinic footprint in parallel with the neonatal/inpatient work.

    The provider is a major in‑state competitor for inpatient consultation, high‑complexity inpatient visits, and consultation codes: 99233 (subsequent inpatient care) is an extreme outlier (rank #1 of 115, 100th percentile), 99244 and 99245 (outpatient consultations) are extreme outliers or top statewide performers (99244 rank #2 of 110, 99th percentile; 99245 rank #1 of 26, 100th percentile), and 99254 is rank #1 of 19 (100th percentile). This mix suggests the practice performs substantial hospital‑based and consultative work in addition to outpatient visits.

    ED and urgent care level E/M codes appear throughout the top list (99284, 99283, 99282, 99285) alongside higher‑level office visit codes (99215), signaling a broad scope that includes emergency department throughput as well as extended outpatient encounters. Several of these codes are high percentile performers in‑state (for example 99284 at the 93rd percentile and 99285 at the 77th percentile), which supports a multi‑setting service model rather than a narrow clinic practice.

    Cardiac imaging for congenital or complex pediatric patients is a notable ancillary service line: 93303 (complete transthoracic echo for congenital heart defects) is high volume and ranks #1 of 10 (100th percentile), 93320 ranks #1 of 13 (100th percentile), and 93306 is high (97th percentile). The prominence and ranks of these echocardiography codes indicate integrated diagnostic imaging capacity that aligns with the neonatal/infant care activity in the top codes.

    The provider has an established market presence—its NPI was enumerated on 2006-02-14 (~20 years ago)—which is consistent with the high claim volumes and frequent top‑rank placements across many Medicaid codes. That tenure, combined with dominant statewide rankings on multiple high‑revenue codes, suggests this entity is a long‑standing, major Medicaid provider in its service areas, but the heavy concentration of revenue in a few codes (top three = 41.2%) also implies exposure to changes in those specific Medicaid reimbursements or utilization patterns.
