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).

AKRAM MUSHTAHA, M.D., M.S is a Pediatric Allergy/Immunology Physician provider practicing in PASADENA, Texas, according to the CMS National Plan and Provider Enumeration System (NPPES). Credentials: M.D., M.S. NPI: 1598942203. This profile includes practice location, specialty classification, and organizational affiliations from the CMS provider registry.

AKRAM MUSHTAHA, M.D., M.S appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Pediatric Allergy/Immunology Physician provider holding M.D., M.S credentials at 5048 CRENSHAW RD # 100, PASADENA, TX, 77505, with a listed phone of (713) 475-5863. NPI 1598942203 was issued on 01/24/2008.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 590 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 92 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $200K in drug spend, split 22% brand-name and 78% generic by claim count.

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.
