ALAIN BRASSARD, MD FRCPC FABD appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Dermatology Physician provider holding MD FRCPC FABD credentials at 3301 C ST STE 1400, SACRAMENTO, CA, 95816, with a listed phone of (916) 734-6657. NPI 1942711486 was issued on 10/23/2017. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what BRASSARD 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 1,339 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 338 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $4.7 million in drug spend, split 38% brand-name and 62% 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 90.928/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 63.354), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Dermatology Physician is a mid-sized specialty nationwide, with 14,610 enrolled providers across 53 states and an average of 729 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline.

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.
