🔎 Data Overview

Prescribes only 1 unique drugs with a 26.0% opioid rate. Very low drug diversity combined with high opioid prescribing is a classic statistical marker of potential pill mill operations. However, some legitimate practices (e.g., addiction treatment with buprenorphine) can show similar patterns.
