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).

CARLOS SUAREZ, M.D. is a Surgical Oncology Physician provider practicing in SOUTH MIAMI, Florida, according to the CMS National Plan and Provider Enumeration System (NPPES). Credentials: M.D..

CARLOS SUAREZ, M.D. appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Surgical Oncology Physician provider holding M.D. credentials at 7000 SW 62ND AVE, SOUTH MIAMI, FL, 33143, with a listed phone of (305) 662-1630.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 91 prescription claims written by this provider, covering N/A Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $11K in drug spend, split 35% brand-name and 65% generic by claim count.
