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 NAGARKATTI-GUDE, M.D., PH.D. appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Psychiatry Physician provider holding M.D., PH.D. credentials at 3181 SW SAM JACKSON PARK RD, PORTLAND, OR, 97239, with a listed phone of (804) 494-8211. NPI 1417374695 was issued on 03/25/2014.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 124 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 19 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $23K in drug spend, split 9% brand-name and 91% generic by claim count.

Psychiatry Physician is a high-volume specialty nationwide, with 53,104 enrolled providers across 56 states and an average of 1,038 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.
