66.7402/100 MIPS final score — 16.4 pts below the 83.1 national average
Quality, Cost, Promoting Interoperability, and Improvement Activities composite score for the 2023 performance year. Specialty: Wound Care Registered Nurse. Quality dim: 65.1836. Cost dim: 38.9505.
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).
CLAY COLLINS is a Wound Care Registered Nurse provider practicing in WICHITA FALLS, Texas, according to the CMS National Plan and Provider Enumeration System (NPPES). NPI: 1396123451. This profile includes practice location, specialty classification, and organizational affiliations from the CMS provider registry. Provider information is self-reported to CMS and updated monthly.
CLAY COLLINS appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Wound Care Registered Nurse provider at 7985 STATE HIGHWAY 79 S, WICHITA FALLS, TX, 76310, with a listed phone of (940) 447-0217. NPI 1396123451 was issued on 05/09/2015. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what COLLINS 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 prescribing data is not currently published for this NPI, which typically means the provider either wrote fewer than 11 Part D claims in the most recent reporting year, does not participate in Medicare, or practices in a specialty that rarely prescribes outpatient drugs. Absence of prescribing data is not a quality signal — many Wound Care Registered Nurse providers operate outside Part D entirely. On the CMS Merit-based Incentive Payment System, this provider earned a Final Score of 66.7402/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 65.1836, Cost 38.9505), compared with the national average of 83.1.
Wound Care Registered Nurse is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 602 enrolled providers across 54 states and an average of 1,085 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.
