Thin LEIE volume band

PAIN MANAGEMENT in the thin-volume third

4 exclusions place PAIN MANAGEMENT in the bottom third by volume among 85 active provider types. Leading statutory reason: Conviction: Program-Related Crime (2, 50% of the category). WA, TX, NY account for the largest share of PAIN MANAGEMENT exclusions on record.

Thin volume (4 rows) can mean fewer federal billers, less audit exposure, or genuinely lower violation rates ; WA still concentrates 25% of this sparse book. LEIE alone cannot separate those causes.
