The Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) scores providers 0–100 across four performance categories: Quality, Cost, Promoting Interoperability, and Improvement Activities, weighted under 42 CFR §414.1380. Reporting is voluntary for many small practices, so absence of a MIPS score is not a quality signal.

Board certification through an ABMS or AOA member board signals voluntary post-licensure examination plus continuous Maintenance of Certification cycles. Verify any individual provider's status through certificationmatters.org (ABMS) or osteopathic.org (AOA).

Adrienne Briggs, M.D. appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Hematology & Oncology Physician provider holding M.D. credentials at 10460 N 92ND ST, Scottsdale, AZ, 85258, with a listed phone of (480) 860-2540. NPI 1821065830 was issued on 03/08/2006. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what Briggs 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 751 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 63 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $1.4 million in drug spend, split 18% brand-name and 82% generic by claim count. 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 67.1/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 84.9, Cost 17.9), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Hematology & Oncology Physician is a mid-sized specialty nationwide, with 11,215 enrolled providers across 54 states and an average of 847 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline. Important: PlainDoctor is a directory of publicly available government data, not medical advice, a malpractice database, or a quality rating. Inclusion here does not imply a recommendation, and absence of complaints or sanctions on this page does not mean none exist, always verify credentials through the NPPES NPI Registry, your state medical board, and the ABMS or AOA before making healthcare decisions.
