DAVID KILPATRICK, MD appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Retina Specialist (Ophthalmology) Physician provider holding MD credentials at 303 VETERANS BLVD, DENHAM SPRINGS, LA, 70726, with a listed phone of (225) 523-7624. NPI 1225449317 was issued on 05/12/2014. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what KILPATRICK 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 491 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 180 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $27K in drug spend, split 46% brand-name and 54% 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. On the CMS Merit-based Incentive Payment System, this provider earned a Final Score of 100/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 100), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Retina Specialist (Ophthalmology) Physician is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 913 enrolled providers across 48 states and an average of 558 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline.
