MIPS final score (Preventive Medicine/Occupational Environmental Medicine Physician) - 75/100 vs national avg 83.1

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).

Athanasios Manole, MD appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Preventive Medicine/Occupational Environmental Medicine Physician provider holding MD credentials at 1540 JUAN TABO BLVD NE STE A, Albuquerque, NM, 87112, with a listed phone of (505) 319-0231. NPI 1780002220 was issued on 04/02/2014. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what Manole 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 3,307 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 645 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $118K in drug spend, split 3% brand-name and 97% generic by claim count, with an opioid prescribing rate of 43.2%. 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 75/100 for the 2023 performance year, compared with the national average of 83.1.

Preventive Medicine/Occupational Environmental Medicine Physician is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 957 enrolled providers across 50 states and an average of 856 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.
