CASSIE BRADFORD, APRN-CNP appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Gerontology Nurse Practitioner provider holding APRN-CNP credentials at 613 23RD ST STE G10, ASHLAND, KY, 41101, with a listed phone of (606) 408-5864. NPI 1356833149 was issued on 06/06/2018. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what BRADFORD 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 237 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 90 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $9K in drug spend, split 7% brand-name and 93% generic by claim count, with an opioid prescribing rate of 26.6%. 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 95.311/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 76.5856), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Gerontology Nurse Practitioner is a mid-sized specialty nationwide, with 9,625 enrolled providers across 54 states and an average of 1,283 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline.
