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).

ALISON LORENZ FORBES, ARNP appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Prescribing (Medical) Psychologist provider holding ARNP credentials at 1010 E COLLEGE WAY, MOUNT VERNON, WA, 98273, with a listed phone of (360) 542-8920. NPI 1205090313 was issued on 07/17/2008.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 625 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 35 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $19K in drug spend, split 3% brand-name and 97% generic by claim count.

Prescribing (Medical) Psychologist is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 225 enrolled providers across 42 states and an average of 972 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.
