Brendan Cummins, M.D. appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Emergency Medicine Physician provider holding M.D. credentials at 4077 FIFTH AVE, San Diego, CA, 92103, with a listed phone of (619) 260-7000. NPI 1598794901 was issued on 06/30/2006. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what Cummins 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 140 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 96 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $6K in drug spend, split 8% brand-name and 92% generic by claim count, with an opioid prescribing rate of 17.1%.

Emergency Medicine Physician is a high-volume specialty nationwide, with 64,398 enrolled providers across 56 states and an average of 352 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline.
