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:

Rate Outlier

Rate Outlier means this provider charges above the 90th percentile for multiple different procedure codes simultaneously. While one high-cost code could reflect specialization, consistently high rates across many codes may indicate systematic overbilling.

Explosive Growth

Explosive Growth means this provider's billing increased by more than 500% year-over-year. While rapid expansion can be legitimate, this pattern has been observed in fraud schemes that ramp up billing quickly before detection.

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