Medicare prescribing footprint (2024)
The drugs this prescriber writes for Medicare patients, grouped by drug class and therapeutic area. Every percentage is a share of their total prescribing, so you can see what they prescribe most. These are proportions, not patient counts or dollar amounts. No condition is inferred: the claims record what was prescribed, never why.
Nervous system
81.5%Other nervous system drugs43.1%Radicava Ors100%Part D<11 patientsGabapentinoids21.5%Gabapentin100%Part D<11 patients+ 1 more class in this area
Metabolism & gastrointestinal
18.5%Anticholinergic18.5%Scopolamine100%Part D<11 patients
Drug classes come from the WHO ATC and U.S. National Library of Medicine (RxClass) classifications; prescribing counts come from the CMS Medicare Part D Prescribers file. Each drug is counted once, under its primary class. Medicare fee-for-service only, so no Medicare Advantage, commercial, or pediatric prescribing is included. CMS publishes this data about 17 months after the fact.
NIH funding

5 NIH research awards on record, funded 2012–2026 per NIH RePORTER. The latest:
