Why this was flagged

Elevated
extreme_per_patient_billing

Medicare paid far more per patient than peers

In 2024 this provider was paid $30,619 per patient, against a typical $17,391 for the same kind of provider in TX. A genuinely high-need patient mix can explain some of this, but extreme per-patient billing is a classic upcoding and phantom-patient pattern.
