Given in the clinic

Part B · billing code
Medicare Part B billing codes matched to OPTISON
Billing code Providers Services Paid by Medicare
Injection, octafluoropropane microspheres, per ml Q9956 148 14,280 $454,608

Drugs given by a clinician are billed to Medicare Part B, not Part D. The product is tied to a billing code through the NDC on CMS's crosswalk, which was published for a later quarter than the payments, so a code that changed in between can be missed. Providers with fewer than 11 patients for the code are not published. Medicare's payment here is what it paid for the services, to the billing practice.

What you are looking at

Manufacturers name the drug, biological or device a payment relates to. CMS does not give products their own identifiers, so a product here is assembled from how it was reported — a brand may appear under more than one spelling, and this page covers one of them rather than the brand as a whole.
