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 BIRD, MD is a Ophthalmology Physician provider practicing in SOUTH JORDAN, Utah, according to the CMS National Plan and Provider Enumeration System (NPPES). Credentials: MD. NPI: 1023645090.

BRIAN BIRD, MD appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Ophthalmology Physician provider holding MD credentials at 11649 S 4000 W STE 200, SOUTH JORDAN, UT, 84009, with a listed phone of (801) 253-3080. NPI 1023645090 was issued on 03/26/2020.

Important: PlainDoctor is a directory of publicly available government data, not medical advice, a malpractice database, or a quality rating.
