AMANDA LUCAS, CNS appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Clinical Nurse Specialist provider holding CNS credentials at 1101 26TH ST S, GREAT FALLS, MT, 59405, with a listed phone of (406) 731-8888. NPI 1386917714 was issued on 02/15/2012. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what LUCAS 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 226 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 27 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $12K in drug spend, split 11% brand-name and 89% generic by claim count, with an opioid prescribing rate of 44.7%. 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 80.4662/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 93.1081, Cost 62.6125), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Clinical Nurse Specialist is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 1,708 enrolled providers across 49 states and an average of 953 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.
