Red Flags Explained

Each flag represents a statistical test that identified unusual billing patterns. Here's what each flag on this provider means in plain English:

Single-Code

Single-Code Billing means this provider bills almost exclusively for one or two procedure codes despite high total volume. Legitimate specialists may focus on specific codes, but extreme concentration can indicate a scheme billing repeatedly for the same service.

These flags are statistical indicators only. Many flagged providers have legitimate explanations for their billing patterns. Learn more about our methodology.

Risk Assessment

Extreme procedure concentration — 50% of all billing flows through just 2 codes (H2016, S5136).
