ABDALLAH ABU-SAMRAH, M.D appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Student in an Organized Health Care Education/Training Program provider holding M.D credentials at 1150 N INDIAN CANYON DR, PALM SPRINGS, CA, 92262, with a listed phone of (760) 778-5908. NPI 1699031450 was issued on 04/05/2012. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what ABU-SAMRAH most recently submitted to CMS rather than a vetted directory listing, which is why patients should always confirm the practice is still at this location before scheduling.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 5,744 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 550 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $441K in drug spend, split 18% brand-name and 82% generic by claim count, with an opioid prescribing rate of 5.2%. These figures capture only Medicare Part D — commercial insurance, Medicaid, and cash-pay prescriptions are not included, and any drug-beneficiary cell under 11 is suppressed by CMS for patient privacy. On the CMS Merit-based Incentive Payment System, this provider earned a Final Score of 83.6376/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 72.7986, Cost 62.5662), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Student in an Organized Health Care Education/Training Program is a high-volume specialty nationwide, with 331,761 enrolled providers across 55 states and an average of 459 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline.
