CHRISTOPHER TARVER, MD appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Brain Injury Medicine (Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation) Physician provider holding MD credentials at 300 PASTEUR DR, STANFORD, CA, 94305, with a listed phone of (650) 723-4000. NPI 1730448689 was issued on 05/13/2012. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what TARVER 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 702 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 90 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $61K in drug spend, split 9% brand-name and 91% generic by claim count, with an opioid prescribing rate of 2.3%. 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 85.186/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 71.8166, Cost 64.5435), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Brain Injury Medicine (Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation) Physician is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 96 enrolled providers across 27 states and an average of 353 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.
