Birdrock
Birdrock was paid $3.16M by Medicaid between Jan 2018 and Dec 2024, across 69 billing codes. Its largest line is G0483, Drug test(s), definitive, utilizing (1) drug identification methods able to identify individual drugs and distinguish between structural isomers (but not necessarily stereoisomers), including, but not limited to gc/ms (any type, single or tandem) and lc/ms (any type, single or tandem and excluding immunoassays (e.g., ia, eia, elisa, emit, fpia) and enzymatic methods (e.g., alcohol dehydrogenase)), (2) stable isotope or other universally recognized internal standards in all samples (e.g., to control for matrix effects, interferences and variations in signal strength), and (3) method or drug-specific calibration and matrix-matched quality control material (e.g., to control for instrument variations and mass spectral drift); qualitative or quantitative, all sources, includes specimen validity testing, per day; 22 or more drug class(es), including metabolite(s) if performed — 31% of everything it billed.

Claims and beneficiary counts add up across code × month rows, so one patient seen every month counts many times. Rows with fewer than 12 claims are suppressed by HHS, so small lines can be missing.
