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).

BRIAN ASH is a Dentist provider practicing in CANTON, Ohio, according to the CMS National Plan and Provider Enumeration System (NPPES). NPI: 1508095217. This profile includes practice location, specialty classification, and organizational affiliations from the CMS provider registry. Provider information is self-reported to CMS and updated monthly.

BRIAN ASH appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Dentist provider at 4777 HIGBEE AVE NW, CANTON, OH, 44718, with a listed phone of (330) 493-0010. NPI 1508095217 was issued on 07/02/2009.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 95 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 62 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $767 in drug spend. 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.

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.
