🔎 Data Overview
Opioid rate is 301% above Physician Assistant peers. This is a significant deviation that may reflect a specialized patient population or concerning prescribing patterns.
Prescribes only 5 unique drugs with a 36.8% 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.
