ANKUR BHAKTA, DO appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Trauma Surgery Physician provider holding DO credentials at 3705 MEDICAL PKWY STE 250, AUSTIN, TX, 78705, with a listed phone of (512) 302-1210. NPI 1164714127 was issued on 05/10/2011. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what BHAKTA 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 141 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 78 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $2K in drug spend, with an opioid prescribing rate of 41.1%. 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 72.5207/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 61.2794, Cost 47.1229), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Trauma Surgery Physician is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 959 enrolled providers across 49 states and an average of 70 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.
