How MIPS and board certification work
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).
David Bleza, MD appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Specialist provider holding MD credentials at 9150 E 109TH AVE, Crown Point, IN, 46307, with a listed phone of (219) 779-9721. NPI 1699872705 was issued on 09/20/2006.
Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 32 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 25 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $620 in drug spend. On the CMS Merit-based Incentive Payment System, this provider earned a Final Score of 81.1/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 75.2, Cost 28.3), compared with the national average of 83.1.
Specialist is a high-volume specialty nationwide, with 69,608 enrolled providers across 55 states and an average of 1,474 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline.

- Confirm the NPI record is current in the official CMS registry, providers update their own NPPES details, and moves can lag. Verify this NPI
- Check the active license and any disciplinary history with the Indiana medical board, federal registration is not a license check. Credential verification guide
- Weigh a second option: compare this provider with a nearby Specialist peer on Medicare volume and prescribing patterns. Compare providers
