CHRISTINE WICHERT, GCNS-BC appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Gerontology Clinical Nurse Specialist provider holding GCNS-BC credentials at 6801 BRECKSVILLE RD, INDEPENDENCE, OH, 44131, with a listed phone of (216) 704-6558. NPI 1669062717 was issued on 01/22/2021. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what WICHERT 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 66 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 35 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $2K in drug spend, split 18% brand-name and 82% generic by claim count. 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.

Gerontology Clinical Nurse Specialist is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 393 enrolled providers across 47 states and an average of 906 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline. 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.
